We come on the sloop John B My grandfather and me 'round Nassau Town we did roam
Drinkin' all night We got into a fight I feel so broke up
I wanna go home
So, hoist up the John B sails See how the main sail set Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home Let me go home Let me go home
I feel so broke up I wanna go home
The first mate, oh he got drunk broke in the people's trunk Constable had to come
and take him away Sheriff Johnstone Please let me alone
I feel so broke up I wanna go home
So, hoist up the John B sail See how the main sail set Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home Let me go home Let me go home,
I feel so broke up I want to go home |
