Fisherman's Son |
I’m doing fine in Alaska |
I don’t mind the storms |
When all the wind contorts me |
Let the diesel engine roar |
But I don’t know why I came here |
Was it because I was born this way? |
Or have I just learned to accept it? |
Like I do every other day |
Oh whatever is the cause |
I will find another job |
And I will stay until I’m far away |
This is not what I’m here for |
I was made to live indoors |
And I will weather out this storm from them |
But I hear it screaming loud |
Over everything somehow |
Saying, «Hey boy. |
Listen up. |
You’re a liar.» |
And you are a fisherman’s son |
And that is what you’ll become |
You are a fisherman’s son |
That is what you’ll become |
I’m doing fine in the city |
I don’t miss the stars |
And I have all my needs here with me |
And I don’t adventure far |
And I’m doing okay for a young man |
I’ve got a place to stay |
But I don’t go out come night time |
No matter what my friends here say |
All the while I am here |
I’ll have some liquor and some beer |
And I’ll wait for another year to come |
And I will fall into the pack |
With the devil on my back |
And I will take another crack at this |
Oh but I could never win |
No, my blood is just too thin |
And my eyes, all they crave is affection |
Cause I am a fisherman’s son |
That is what I’ll become |
I am a fisherman’s son |
That is what I’ll become |
