JACK JOHNSON lyrics : "A Pirate Looks At Forty"

Mother mother ocean I have heard you call

Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall


Youve seen it all youve seen it all


Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam

And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen


Most of em dream most of em dream


Yes I am a pirate two hundred years too late

The cannons don't thunder there's nothin to plunder


Im an over-forty victim of fate


Arriving too late arriving too late

I've done a bit of smugglin Ive run my share of grass


I made enough money to buy miami but I pissed it away so fast


Never meant to last never meant to last

And I have been drunk now for over two weeks


I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks


But I got stop wishin got to go fishin

Down to rock bottom again


Just a few friends just a few friends


Just a few friends just a few friends
