Land Ho! Lyrics - The Doors Box Set - The Doors

Grandma loved a sailor who sailed the frozen sea 

Grandpa was that whaler and he took me on his knee 

He said, "Son, I'm goin' crazy from livin' on the land 

Got to find my shipmates and walk on foreign sand" 

This old man was graceful with silver in his smile 

He smoked a briar pipe and he walked for four country miles 

Singin' songs of shady sisters and old town liberty 

Songs of love and songs of death, songs that set men free, hey 

I've got three ships and sixty men 

A course for ports unread 

I'll stand at mast, let north winds blow 

Till half of us are dead 

Land ho

Whenever I get my hands on a dollar bill 

Gonna buy a bottle and drink my fill 

If I get my hands on a number five 

Gonna skin that little girl alive 

If I get my hands on a number two 

Come back home and marry you 

Marry you, marry you, alright 

Aey land ho, aey land ho

If I get back home and I feel all right 

You know baby gonna love you tonight 

Love tonight, love tonight 

Aey land ho, aey land ho 

Aey land ho
