Lyrics

[00:06.57] We come on the sloop John B
[00:06.65] My grandfather and me
[00:10.26] Around Nassau town we did roam
[00:17.69] Drinking all night
[00:20.65] Got into a fight
[00:24.97] Well I feel so broke up
[00:28.25] I want to go home
[00:33.19] So hoist up the John B's sail
[00:36.93] See how the mainsail sets
[00:40.79] Call for the Captain ashore
[00:43.65] Let me go home, let me go home
[00:47.44] I wanna go home, yeah yeah
[00:55.42] Well I feel so broke up
[00:58.44] I wanna go home
[01:03.63] The first mate he got drunk
[01:07.56] And broke in the Cap'n's trunk
[01:11.49] The constable had to come and take him away
[01:18.11] Sheriff John Stone
[01:21.53] Why don't you leave me alone, yeah yeah
[01:26.17] Well I feel so broke up I wanna go home
[01:33.82] So hoist up the John B's sail
[01:38.86] See how the mainsail sets
[01:41.73] Call for the Captain ashore
[01:44.99] Let me go home, let me go home
[01:48.42] I wanna go home, let me go home
[01:53.67] Why don't you let me go home
[01:53.71] (Hoist up the John B's sail)
[01:53.77] Hoist up the John B
[01:57.62] I feel so broke up I wanna go home
[02:02.46] Let me go home
[02:05.49] The poor cook he caught the fits
[02:09.73] And threw away all my grits
[02:13.02] And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
[02:19.58] Let me go home
[02:22.83] Why don't they let me go home
[02:27.69] This is the worst trip I've ever been on
[02:35.16] So hoist up the John B's sail
[02:39.28] See how the mainsail sets
[02:42.95] Call for the Captain ashore
[02:46.21] Let me go home, let me go home
[02:49.36] I wanna go home, let me go home
[02:51.02] Why don't you let me go home
