Sloop John B Paroles

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 wanna go home

So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, I wanna go home
Why don't they let me go home, yeah yeah
Well I feel so broke up
I wanna go home

(Doo roop doo doo roop)

The first mate he got drunk (Oooooh)
And broke in the Cap'n's trunk (Oooooh)
So hoist up the John B's sail (hoist up the John B's sail)
See how the mainsail sets (see how the mainsail sets)
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home,
Why don't they let me go home (hoist up the John B's sail)
Hoist up the John B
I feel so broke up wish I could go home

The poor cook he caught the fits
And threw away all my grits
And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
I wanna go home
Why don't they let me go home, yeah yeah
Oh, I feel so broke up wish I could go home

So hoist up the John B's sail (hoist up the John B's sail)
See how the mainsail sets (see how the mainsail sets)
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home,
Why don't they let me go home (hoist up the John B's sail)
Hoist up the John B
This is the worst trip I've ever been on

(Dennis) There's only one!
(?????) Wow!
(Carl) Here it is... mmmh... 1, 2, 3, 4!
