Sloop John B (Live)
For we sail on the Sloop John B
My grandpappy and me
Over the seven seas we did roam
Drinking all night (drinking all night)
Got into a fight
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail (hoist up the John B)
See how the main sail sets (see how the main sail)
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home
I wanna go home
Let me go home, and I wanna go home
Hoist up the John B sail
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
Now the captain's a wicked man
He gets drunk whenever he can
And he don't give a damn for grandpappy and me
He kicks us around (kicks us around)
And he knocks us about
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail (hoist up the John B)
See how the main sail sets (see how the main sail)
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home
I wanna go home
Let me go home, and I wanna go home
Hoist up the John B sail
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
Now the first mate, he got drunk
And he broke in the captain's trunk
And the constable had to come and take him away
Sherriff John Stone (Sherriff John Stone)
Why don't you leave me alone?
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail (hoist up the John B)
See how the main sail sets (see how the main sail)
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home
I wanna go home
Let me go home, and I wanna go home
Hoist up the John B sail
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail (hoist up the John B)
See how the main sail sets (see how the main sail)
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home
I wanna go home
Let me go home, and I wanna go home
Hoist up the John B sail
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I want to go home
My grandpappy and me
Over the seven seas we did roam
Drinking all night (drinking all night)
Got into a fight
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail (hoist up the John B)
See how the main sail sets (see how the main sail)
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home
I wanna go home
Let me go home, and I wanna go home
Hoist up the John B sail
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
Now the captain's a wicked man
He gets drunk whenever he can
And he don't give a damn for grandpappy and me
He kicks us around (kicks us around)
And he knocks us about
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail (hoist up the John B)
See how the main sail sets (see how the main sail)
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home
I wanna go home
Let me go home, and I wanna go home
Hoist up the John B sail
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
Now the first mate, he got drunk
And he broke in the captain's trunk

Let me go home
I wanna go home
Let me go home, and I wanna go home
Hoist up the John B sail
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail (hoist up the John B)

I wanna go home
Let me go home, and I wanna go home
Hoist up the John B sail
Well I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I wanna go home
I feel so broke up (oh yeah)
I want to go home
