Jimmy Buffett - Pirate Looks at Forty слова песни
Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
You`ve seen it all, you`ve seen it all
Watched the men who rode you switch from sail to steam
In your belly you can hold the treasures few have ever seen
Most of `em dreams, most of `em dreams
Yes, I am a pirate, two hundred years too late
The cannons don`t thunder, there`s nothin` to plunder
I`m an over-forty victim of fate
Arriving too late, arriving too late
But I`ve done a bit of smugglin`, I`ve run my share of grass
Made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last, never meant to last
I have been drunk now for over two weeks,
Passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
But I`ve got stop wishin`, got to go fishin`
I`m down to rock bottom again
Just a few friends, just a few friends
"Nice to see all of our friends every year. Thank you
friends."
Now I go for younger women, lived with several awhile
Though I ran `em away, they`d come back one day
And I still could manage a smile
Sure takes a while, just takes a while
Mother, mother ocean, after all my years I`ve found
Occupational hazard being my occupation`s just not around
Feel like I`ve drowned, but I won`t wear a frown
Feel like I`ve drowned, I`m gonna go check out
Peachtree Street somewhere downtown
