Sloop John B

O'er we sail on the Sloop John B

My grandpappy and me

Over the seven seas we did roam

Drinking all night drinking all night

Got into a fight

Well I feel so broke up, oh yeah, I wanna go home

Do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop

So hoist up the John B sail hoist up the John B

See how the main sail sets see how the main sail

Call for the capatin ashore

Let me go home

I wanna go home

Let me go home, and I wanna go home

Hoist up the John B sail

Well, I feel so broke up, oh yeah, I wanna go home

Do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop

Now the captain's a wicked man

He gets drunk whenever he can

And he don't give a damn for grandpappy and me

He kicks us around kicks us around

And he knocks us about

Well I feel so broke up, oh yeah, I wanna go home

Do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop

So hoist up the John B sail hoist up the John B

See how the main sail sets see how the main sail

Call for the capatin ashore

Let me go home

I wanna go home

Let me go home, and I wanna go home

Hoist up the John B sail

Well, I feel so broke up, oh yeah, I wanna go home

Do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop

Now the first mate, he got drunk

And he broke in the captain's trunk

And the constable had to come and take him away

Sherriff John Stone Sherriff John Stone

Why don't you leave me alone?

Well, I feel so broke up, oh yeah, I wanna go home

Do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop-a-do-bop

So hoist up the John B sail hoist up the John B
