Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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 broke up

I wanna go home

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

The first mate, he got drunk

And broke in the captain'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

[Chorus]

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

Home

Feel so broke up

I wanna go home

[Verse 3]

The poor cook, he caught the fit

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

[Chorus]

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
