A Pirate Looks At Forty
A Pirate Looks At Forty - Jack Johnson
A Pirate Looks At Forty - Jack Johnson
Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call
媽媽，海洋媽媽，我聽到你的呼喚
我有三英尺高的時就想在你的水域航行
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
你看到了一切，你看到了一切
看著駛過你的人從船帆變成蒸汽
Youve seen it all, youve seen it all
在你的肚子裡藏著很少人見過的珍寶
那是大多數人的夢想，大部分人的夢想
Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam
是的，我是海盜，晚了兩百年才遇見你
天空不打雷，沒什麼可掠奪的
In your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen
我是命運的犧牲品
Most of em dreams, most of em dreams
太遲了，太遲了
我做了走私，帶走了我的那份珠寶
Yes I am a pirate, a few two hundred years too late
我賺了足夠買下邁阿密的錢但是我很快就把它揮霍掉了
從未想過要繼續，從未想過要繼續
The cannons dont thunder, theres nothin to plunder
我已經喝了兩個多星期了
我暈過去了，然後又振作起來喝了幾口
Im an over-forty victim of fate
但我得停下來，我得去釣魚了
我再次跌入谷底
Arrivin too late, arrivin too late
我的朋友寥寥無幾
我活著但是空無一物
Ive done a bit of smugglin, Ive 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 stop wishin, Ive got to go fishin
Down to rock bottom again
Just a few friends, just a few friends
Just a few friends, just a few friends
