The Wreck Of The John B Lyrics

We came on the sloop "John B" My grandfather and me 'Round Nassau town we did roam Stayed awake all night We got into a fight Well, I feel so broke up I want to go home Hoist up the "John B" sail See how the main sail sets Tell the captain ashore I wanna go home Well, I wanna go home I wanna go home Lord, I feel so broke up I just wanna go home Well, the first mate he got drunk And he broke into somebody's trunk And the Sheriff had to come and take him away Sheriff John Slone Please let me alone Well, I feel so broke up I just wanna go home Hoist up the "John B" sail See how the main sail sets Tell the captain ashore I wanna go home Lord, I wanna go home I just wanna go home Well, I feel so broke up I just wanna go home Hoist up the "John B" sail See how the main sail sets Tell the captain ashore I wanna go home Well, I wanna go home I wanna go home Lord, I feel so broke up I just wanna go home Well, I feel so broke up I wanna go home
