The Viking Songtext

von Lars Frederiksen And The Bastards

Well how do you do
My name is lars
Im from Cambell california
You might know that by now
Im of danish decent
For that im proud
See my father was a nomad
I havent seen him for awhile
Lost a brother
Still got a mother I aint motherless
For some of you out there
That might be hard to believe
See ive been up and ive been down
Smile and ive frown
Ive made a every gesture
That a young man can steal
And I know that im married to the sea
Well I know im married to the sea
You see some people are on lockdown
And some are free
But I know that im married to the sea

Well ive been rich ive been poor
Spend it on whores
Got married and divorce to the girl thats next door
Stolen fast cars dated pop stars
Been around the world
Slept with underage women
Turn tricks for a thrill
Tried sucide but didnt die
Well im here to tell
I dont know a heaven
But ive made peace with hell
Been shot at been stabbed
Been beatin up real bad
Survive everything without being killed

And I know im married to the sea
And I know im married to the sea
Some people are on lockdown man
Some are free
And I know im married to the sea

Slept in fancy hotels eaten from garbage cans
Been down every highway ive grown into a man
See my best friend died right before my eyes
Aborted a baby and shed on my tears
Been strung out on pills slammed my share of dope
I drank all your booze and snorted your coke
Ive been loved ive been hated
To me its all the same
Embraced by a lover or your cursing my name

And I know im married to the sea
And I know im married to the sea
Some people are on lockdown
And some are free
And I know im married to the sea

And I know im married to the sea
And I know im married to the sea
Some people are on lockdown sugar
And some are free
And I know im married to the sea

Im married to the sea
You see the great big ocean
Well thats for me
Sorry ladies im married to the sea
Im married to the sea
Im married to the sea

But im free yea im free
