(The Wreck Of) The John B. - The Weavers

Written by：Hays Sandburg

We came on the sloop John B

My grandfather and me

'Round Nassau town we did roam

Drinking all night

We got into a fight

I feel so break up

I'll want to go home

So hoist up the John B sail

See how the mainsail sets

Sent for the captain ashore

Let me go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

I feel so break up

I'll want to go home

The first mate he got drunk

Broke up people's trunk

Constable had to come and take him away

Sheriff Johnstone please let me alone

I fell so breakup I want to go home

So hoist up the John B sail

See how the mainsail sets

Sinple the captain ashore

Let me go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

I feel so break up

I want to go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

Let me go home

I feel so break up

I want to go home
