Sloop John B.

Beach Boys

D
We come on the Sloop John B.
D
My grandfather and me.
A
Around Nassau town we did roam.
D
Drinkin' all night,
G
Got into a fight.
D A
Well I feel so broke up,
D
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 
Broke up the captain's trunk. 
The constable had to come and take him away. 
Sheriff John Stone, 
Why don't you leave me alone, 
I feel so broke up - 
I want to go home. 
So hoist up the John B's sail... 
 
The poor cook he caught the fits, 
threw 'way all my grits. 
Then he took and ate up all of my corn. 
Let me go home, I want to go home. 
This is the worst trip I've ever been on! 
So hoist up the John B's sail...
