Hmmmmm, I searched and searched the internet with the title you've given and can't find any song titled that!

What I did find was this, a song by the Doors. (Love the Doors! I even met Jim Morrison in 1968 in Berkley, CA, and he invited us to sit with him at an outdoor cafe table and have coffee with him!

)

Quote:

Land Ho by The Doors
Album: Morrison Hotel
Date: 1970

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 going crazy from livin' on the land
Got to find my shipmates and walk on foreign sands'

This old man was graceful with silver in his smile
He smoked a briar pipe and he walked four country miles
Singing songs of shady sisters and old time liberty
Songs of love and songs of death and songs to set men free
Ya

I've got three ships and sixteen men
A course for ports unread
I'll stand at mast, let north winds blow till half of us are dead
Land ho

Well, if 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 litlle girl alive
If I get my hand on a number two come back home and marry you
Marry you, marry you
Alright
Land ho

Found at Song Facts.

And at that site, people have posted what they think the song means.
