Sloop John B.

[Verse 1]
Oh, my granddaddy and me
Would sail on the Sloop John B
Around Nassau town we did roam
Mm-hmm, we got into a fight
Ah, we were drinkin' all night
Yeah now, I feel so break up
I wanna go home

[Chorus]
C'mon now, we'll run up the John B's sail
We gonna see how the mainsail sets
We gotta send for the Captain ashore
Oh, let me go home
I wanna go home
Yeah, let me go home
Don't you know I feel so break up
I just wanna go home

[Verse 2]
Now, the first mate he got drunk
And he broke up the people's trunk
The constable had to come and take him away
Ah, Sheriff John Stone
Can't you leave him alone?
Oh now, I feel so break up
I just wanna go home

[Chorus]
C'mon lets all sing it now
Ya, run up the John B's sail
We gonna see how the mainsail sets
We gotta send for the Captain ashore
Oh, let me go home
I wanna go home
Yeah, let me go home
Yeah now, I feel so break up
I just wanna go home

[Verse 3]
Ah, then the cookie, he took the fits (Yeah)
He ate up all my grits
And then the first mate he got drunk
Drank all of my corn (How did he get in here again?)
Sheriff John Stone
Why don't you leave him alone?
C'mon now, ha, I feel so break up
I just wanna go home

[Chorus]
Run up it up now, yeah
We'll run up the John B's sail
We gonna see how the mainsail sets
We gotta send for the Captain ashore
Let me go home
Ah, I wanna go home
Yeah, let me go home
Don't you know, I feel so break up
I just wanna go home

[Outro]
Run up it up again, yeah
Ah, run up the John B's sail
And see how the mainsail sets
We gotta send for the Captain ashore
Let me go home
