1
Mother, mother ocean, I've heard you call
2
Wanted to sail upon your waters
3
Since I was three feet tall
4
You've seen it all, you've seen it all
5
Watch the men who rode you
6
Switch from sails to steam
7
And in your belly you can hold the treasures
8
Few have ever seen
9
Most of them dream
10
Most of them dream
11
Yes, I am a pirate two hundred years too late
12
Cannons don't thunder there's nothin' to plunder
13
I'm an over forty victim of fate
14
Arriving too late, arriving too late
15
But I've done a bit of smugglin'
16
I've run my share of grass
17
Made enough money to buy Miami
18
But I pissed it away so fast
19
Never meant to last
20
Never meant to last
21
I have been drunk now for over two weeks
22
Passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
23
But I've got to stop wishin', got to go fishin'
24
I'm down to rock bottom again.
25
Just a few friends
26
Just a few friends
27
I go for younger women, lived with several awhile
28
Though I ran them away, they come back one day
29
And still could manage a smile
30
It just takes awhile, just takes awhile
31
Mother, mother ocean, after all my years I've found
32
Occupational hazard be my occupations just not around
33
Feel like I've drowned but all were frowned
34
Feel like I've drowned
