The Viking

Well how do you do

My name is lars

i'm from Campbell California

you might know that by now

i'm of danish decent

for that i'm proud

see my father was a nomad

i haven't seen him for awhile

lost a brother

still got a mother i ain't motherless

for some of you out there

that might be hard to believe

see i've been up and i've been down

smile and i've frown

i've made a every gesture

that a young man can steal

and i know that i'm married to the sea

well i know i'm married to the sea

you see some people are on lockdown

and some are free

but i know that i'm married to the sea

Well i've been rich i've been poor

spend it on whores

got married and divorce to the girl that's next door

stolen fast cars dated pop stars

been around the world

slept with underage women

turn tricks for a thrill

tried suicide but didn't die

well i'm here to tell

i don't know a heaven

but i've made peace with hell

been shot at been stabbed

been beatin' up real bad

survive everything without being killed

and i know i'm married to the sea

and i know i'm married to the sea

some people are on lockdown man

some are free

and i know i'm married to the sea

slept in fancy hotels eaten from garbage cans

been down every highway i've 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

i've been loved i've been hated

to me its all the same

embraced by a lover or your cursing my name

and i know i'm married to the sea

and i know i'm married to the sea

some people are on lockdown

and some are free

and i know i'm 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

i'm married to the sea

you see the great big ocean

well that's for me

Sorry ladies i'm married to the sea

i'm married to the sea

i'm married to the sea

but i'm free yea i'm free
