Track Title: Sloop John B Album Title: 20 Good Vibrations - The Greatest Hits Prime Artist: Beach Boys Arranger: Brian Wilson Written by: Brian Wilson From the Album: '69 Live In London 1969 (A) Lyrics: We come on the Sloop John B My Grandfather and me Around Nassau Town we do roam Drinking all night Got into a fight Well, I feel so broke 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 Well, I feel so broke up I wanna go hom The first mate he got drunk Thrown in the captain's trunk The constable had to come and take him away Cheer up John Stone Why d'you leave me alone Well, I feel so broke 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 Well, I feel so broke up I wanna go home The poor cook he caught the fits Threw away all of my grits Then he caught and ate up all my corn Let me go home Why don't they let me go home This is the worst trip I've ever been on 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 |
