The John B’s Sails

[D] We come on the sloop John B
My Grandfather and me
Around Nassau town we did [A7] roam
Drinkin' all [D] night
Got into a [G] – [Em] fight
Well, I [D] feel so break up, [A7] I want to go [D] home

Chorus:
Hoist up the John B's sails
See how the main sails set
Call for the captain ashore, let me go home
Let me go home
I want to go home
Well, I feel so break up, I want to go home
First mate, he got drunk
Broke up the people's trunk
Constable had to come and take him away
Sheriff John Stone
Why don't you leave me alone?
Well, I feel so break up, I want to go home
Chorus
Well, the poor cook he caught the fits
Throw away all of my grits
Then he took and he ate up all of my corn
Let me go home
I want to go home
This is the worst trip since I've been born
Chorus
