We come on the sloop John B
|
My grandfather and me
|
Around Nassau town we do roam
|
Drinking all night, got into a fight
|
Well I feel so broken up, I want go to 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 want to go home, why won't you let me go home?
|
Well I feel so broken up, I want to go home
|
|
The first mate 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?
|
Well I feel so broken up, I want to 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 want to go home, let me go home
|
Why don't you let me go home?
|
I feel so broken up, I want to go home
|
Let me go home
|
|
The poor cook he caught the fits
|
And threw away all my grits
|
And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
|
Let me go home, why won't you let me go home?
|
This is the worst trip since I've been born
|
|
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 want to go home, why don't you let me go home?
|
I feel so broken up, I want to go home
