Jimmy Buffett - A Pirate Looks At 40 lyrics
Mother, mother ocean 
I've heard you call 
Wanted to sail upon your waters 
Since I was three feet tall 
You've seen it all 
You see it all 
I've watched the men who rode you 
Switched from sails to steam 
And in your belly you hold the treasures 
Few have ever seen 
Most of them dreams 
Most of them dreams 
Yes I am a pirate 
Two hundred years too late 
The cannons don't thunder 
There's nothing to plunder 
I'm an over forty victim of fate 
Arriving too late 
Arriving too late 
I've done a bit of smuggling 
And I've run my share of grass 
I've made enough money to buy Miami 
But I pissed it away so fast Jimmy Buffett - A Pirate Looks At 40 - http://motolyrics.com/jimmy-buffett/a-pirate-looks-at-40-lyrics.html
Never meant to last 
Never meant to last 
Well I have been drunk now for over two weeks 
I past and I've rallied and I sprung a few leaks 
But I've got to stop wishin' got to go fishin' 
I'm down to rock bottom again 
With just a few friends 
Just a few friends 
I go for younger women(Trouuubllee) 
Lived with several awhile 
But I've ran them away 
Hell, they come back some day 
And still can manage to smile 
Just takes a while 
It just takes a while 
Mother mother ocean 
After all these years I've found 
This occupational hazard be 
My occupations just not around 
Feels like I've drown 
Gonna get drunk up town 
Feels like I've drown 
When I get drunk up town
