Sloop John B (1996 - Remaster) - The Beach Boys

Written by：Brian Wilson

We come on the Sloop John B

My grandfather and me

Around Nassau town we did roam

Drinking all night

Got into a fight

Well I feel so broke up

I want to go home

So hoist up the John B's sail

See how the main sail sets

Call for the captain ashore

Let me go home

Let me go home

I want to go home

Yeah yeah

Well I feel so broke up

I want to go home

First mate he got drunk

Broke in the cap'n'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 want to go home

So hoist up the John B's

Hoist up the John B's sail

See how the main sail

See how the main sail sets

Call for the captain ashore

Let me go home

Let me go home

I want to go home let me go home

Why don't you let me go home

Hoist up the John B's sail

Hoist up the John B

Feel so broke up I want to go home

Let me go home

The poor cook

Poor cook he caught the fits

Threw away all my grits

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

So hoist up the John B's

Hoist up the John B's sail

See how the main sail sets

See how the main sail

Call for the captain ashore

Let me go home

Let me go home

I want to go home

Let me go home
