《A Pirate Looks at Forty》歌词

[00:00:00] A Pirate Looks at Forty - The Global HitMakers

[00:00:17] Mother, Mother Ocean, I've heard you call

[00:00:25] Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall

[00:00:32] You've seen it all, you've seen it all

[00:00:41] Watched the men who rode you, switch from sails to steam

[00:00:49] In your belly you hold the treasures, few have ever seen

[00:00:56] Most of 'em dream, most of 'em dream

[00:01:05] Yes, I am a pirate, two hundred year's too late

[00:01:13] The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder

[00:01:16] I'm an over-forty victim of fate

[00:01:20] Arriving too late, arriving too late

[00:01:29] I've done a bit of smugglin' and I've run my share of grass

[00:01:36] I made enough money to buy Miami

[00:01:41] but I pissed it away so fast

[00:01:44] Never meant to last, never meant to last

[00:01:53] And I have been drunk now for over two weeks

[00:01:57] I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks

[00:02:01] But I got to stop wishin', got to go

[00:02:05] fishin' down to rock bottom again

[00:02:09] Just a few friends, just a few friends

[00:02:46] lived with several awhile

[00:02:49] Though I ran 'em away, they'd come back one day

[00:02:54] Still could manage to smile

[00:02:57] Just takes a while, just takes a while

[00:03:06] Mother, Mother Ocean, after all the years I've found

[00:03:14] My occupational hazard being

[00:03:18] my occupation's just not around

[00:03:21] I feel like I've drowned, gonna head uptown

[00:03:29] I feel like I've drowned, gonna head uptown
