Sloop John B 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 fell so broke up, I want to go home.



So hoist up the John B. sails,

See how the main-sail sets.

Call for the Captain ashore, let me go home

Let me go home, I wanna go home

Well, I feel so broke up, I wanna go home



The first mate, he got drunk.

Broke in the Captain's trunk.

Constable had to come and take him away.

Sheriff John Stone, why don't you leave me alone?

Well, I feel so broke up, I wanna go home



So hoist up the John B. sails.

See how the main-sail sets.

Call for the Captain ashore, let me go home

Let me go home, I wanna go home

Well, I feel so broke up, I wanna go home



The poor cook he took fits.

Through away all my grits.

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. sails

See how the main sail sets

Call for the Captain ashore, let me go home

Let me go home, I wanna go home...
