I Wanna Go Home

Intro:

("Here's a very good old good one, see if you remember this one, see if we do!)

("This is gonna be nice, this is gonna be very nice")

Sailed on the Sloop John B

My granddaddy and me

'Round Nassau town we did roam

We'd been drinkin' all night

Well I got into a fight

Yeah and I feel so broke up

I wanna go home

Hoist up the John B sail's

See how the mainsail sets

Send for the Captain ashore

And let me go home

I wanna go home, I wanna go home, yeah

'Cause I feel so broke up, I wanna go home

Yes I do

(He's so broke up, Lord, I wanna go home)

Well Captain's a wicked man

He gets drunk any time he can

And he don't give a damn for grandpappy

No, nor me

He kicks us around

And he knocks us about

Well I feel so broke up, I

I wanna go home

Well pull up the John B's sails

See how the mainsail sets

Send for the Captain ashore

And let me go home

I wanna go home

Well, I wanna go home

'Cause I feel so broke up (he's so broke up)

I wanna go home

(Yes I do)

I feel so broke up

(He so broke up)

Lord, that I wanna go home

Home
