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 |
