A Pirate Looks At Forty by Jimmy Buffett


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 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

I'm an over-forty victim of fate

Arriving too late arriving too late

I've done a bit of smugglin' and I've 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 to stop wishin' got to go fishin'

Down to rock bottom again just a few friends just a few friends

 

I go for younger women lived with several a while

Though I ran 'em away they'd come back one day

They still could manage to smile

Just takes a while just takes a while

 

Mother mother ocean after all the years I've found

My occupational hazard being my occupation's just not around

I feel like I've drowned gonna head uptown

I feel like I've drowned gonna head uptown
