Title:				PIRATE LOOK AT FORTY		(Jimmy Buffet)

	
	Mother mother ocean, I have heard you call
	                                               
	Wanted to sail upon your water since I was three feet tall
	                 
	You seen it  all, you seen it all

	
	Watched the men who rode you, switch from sail to steam
	                                                 
	And in your belly you hold the treasures, few have ever seen
	                     
	Most of  them dream, most of them 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 to  late, arriving to late

	
	I done a bit of smugglin', 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

	
	I have been drunk now for over two weeks, I passed out and

		I rallied and I smoked a few reefs
	                                                        
	But I gotta stop wishin' I got to go fishin', down to Rock Bottom again
	                   
	Just a  few friends, just a few friends

	LEAD

	
	I go for younger women, lived with several a while
	                                                             
	Though I ran 'em away they come back one day, still could manage a smile
	                    
	Just takes a while, just takes a while

	
	Mother mother ocean, after all these years I've found
	                                           
	Occupational hazzard beats an occupation just not around
	                       
	Feel like I  drowned, gonna head up town
	                       
	Feel like I  drowned, gonna head up town
