Sloop John B.

We come on the sloop John B

My grandfather and me

Around Nassau town we did roam

Drinkin' all night

Got into a fight

Oh now I feel so broke up

I just wanna go home

So hoist up the John B's sail

See how the mainsail sets

Call for the Captain ashore

Let me go home, I wanna go home

Yes, I wanna go home

Oh now, I feel so broke up

I just wanna go home

The first mate, he got drunk

He broke into the Captain's trunk

Oh, the cops will come along and take him away

Sheriff John Stone

Why'd you leave me alone?

But now, I feel so broke up

I just wanna go home

So hoist up the John B's sail

See how the mainsail sets

Call for the Captain ashore

Let me go home, they don't wanna go home

Yes, they wanna go home

Oh now, I feel so broke up

I just wanna go home

So come on the sloop John B

My grandfather and me

Around Nassau town we did roam

Drinkin' all night

We got into a fight

Oh now, feel so broke up

I just wanna go home

So hoist up the John B's sail

See how the mainsail sets

Call for the Captain ashore

Let me go home, yes I wanna go home

Yeah, I wanna go home

Oh now, feel so broke up

I just wanna go home, oh yeah

Hoist up the John B's sail

See how the mainsail sets

Hoist up the John B's sail

See how the mainsail sets
