Sloop John B (Carl Sings First Verse)

Sloop John B (Carl Sings First Verse) - The Beach Boys

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 want to 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

Well I feel so broke up

I wanna go home

The first mate he got drunk

And broke in the captain's trunk

The constable had to come and take him away

Sheriff John Stone

Why don't you leave me alone

Well I feel so broke up

I wanna 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

Let me go home

Hoist up the John B's sail

Hoist up the John B

Feel so broke up

I wanna go home

Let me 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

Let me go home

Why don't they let me go home

This is the worst trip

I've ever been on

Hoist up the John B's

Hoist up the John B's sail

Mainsail sail

Mainsail sail

Call for the captain ashore

Let me go home

Let me go home

I wanna go home

Let me go home
