Down On The Sloop John B. |
| We come on the sloop John B |
| My grandfather and me |
| Around Nassau town we did roam |
| Drinkin' all night |
| Got into a fight |
| Well, I feel so brake 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 yeah |
| Well, I feel so brake up |
| I wanna go home |
| The first mate, he got drunk |
| He broke into the Captain’s trunk |
| The constable had to come to take him away |
| Sheriff John Stone |
| Why’d you leave me alone? |
| Yeah yeah |
| Well, I feel so brake 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 yeah |
| Well, I feel so brake up |
| I wanna go home |
