[Verse]
AWe come on the sloop John B myA grandfather and me
AAround Nassau town we did E7roam
A drinkin' all AniA7ght got into a fDight
Well I fAeel so break up I E7want to go hoAme
[Chorus]
So Ahoist up the John B sails seAe how the mainsail sets
ASend for the captain ashore let me go hE7ome
I want to go AhoA7me I want to go hDome
Well I fAeel so break up I E7want to go hoAme
Well the fAirst mate he got drunk brAoke up the people's trunk
The Aconstable had to come and take him aE7way
Oh Sheriff John SAtoA7ne please leave me aloDne
Well I fAeel so break up I E7want to go hoAme
[Chorus]
SAo hoist up the John B sails Asee how the mainsail sets
ASend for the captain ashore let me go hE7ome
I want to go AhoA7me I want to go hDome
Well I fAeel so break up I E7want to go hoAme
Well the cAook he got fits ateA up all of my grits
AThen he took and threw away all the E7corn
Oh Sheriff John SAtoA7ne please leave me aloDne
AThis is the worst trip E7I've ever been Aon
[Chorus]
SAo hoist up the John B sails Asee how the mainsail sets
ASend for the captain ashore let me go hE7ome
I want to go AhoA7me I want to go hDome
Well I fAeel so break up I E7want to go hoAme
