Lyrics

We come on the Sloop John B
My grandfather and me
Around Nassau town we did roam
Drinking all night, got into a fight
Well I feel so broke up, I 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
Let me go home, I wanna go home, yeah
Well I feel so broke up, I wanna go home
The first mate he got drunk
And broke in the captain's trunk
The constable had to come and take him away
Sheriff John Stone, why don't you leave me alone, yeah
Well I feel so broke up, I 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
Let me go home, I wanna go home, let me go home
(Hoist up the John B's sail)
Hoist up the John B's sail
(Hoist up the John B's)
I feel so broke up, I wanna go home
Let me go home
The poor cook he caught the fit
And threw away all my grit
Then he took and he ate up all of my corn
Let me go home, why don't they let me go home
This is the worst trip I've ever been on
So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the captain ashore, let me go home
Let me go home, I wanna go home, let me go home
(Hoist up the John B's sail)
Hoist up the John B's sail
(Hoist up the John B's)
I feel so broke up, I wanna go home
Let me go home
