*** Wreck Of The Sloop John B ***
I found these lyrics here We come on the sloop John B My grandfather
and me Around Nassau town we did roam Drinking all night Got into a fight
Well I feel so broke 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 wanna go home, yeah yeah Well I feel so broke up I wanna
go home The first mate he got drunk And broke in the Cap'n's trunk The
constable had to come and take him away Sheriff John Stone Why don't you
leave me alone, yeah yeah Well I feel so broke 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, let me go home Why don't
you let me go home (Hoist up the John B's sail) Hoist up the John B I
feel so broke up I wanna 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 don't they let me go home This is the worst
trip I've ever been on 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, let me go home Why don't you let me go home
