Lyrics

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
