Down On The Sloop John B.

(álbum: (You Don't Have To) Paint Me A Picture - 1967)

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 brake 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, let me go home
I wanna go home, yeah yeah
Well, I feel so brake up
I wanna go home

The first mate, he got drunk
He broke into the Captain's trunk
The constable had to come to take him away
Sheriff John Stone
Why'd you leave me alone? Yeah yeah
Well, I feel so brake 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, let me go home
I wanna go home, yeah yeah
Well, I feel so brake up
I wanna go home
