Lyrics (The Wreck of The) John B - The Weavers
We
came
on
the
sloop
"John
B"
My
grandfather
and
me
'Round
Nassau
town
we
did
roam
Stayed
awake
all
night
We
got
into
a
fight
Well,
I
feel
so
broke
up
I
just
want
to
go
home
Hoist
up
the
"John
B"
sail
See
how
the
mainsail
sets
Tell
the
captain
ashore
I
wanna
go
home
Well,
I
wanna
go
home
I
wanna
go
home
Lord,
I
feel
so
broke
up
I
just
wanna
go
home
Well,
the
first
mate
he
got
drunk
And
he
broke
into
somebody's
trunk
And
the
Sheriff
had
to
come
and
take
him
away
Sheriff
John
Slone
Please
let
me
alone
Well,
I
fell
so
broken
up
I
just
wanna
go
home
Hoist
up
the
"John
B"
sail
See
how
the
mainsail
sets
Tell
the
captain
ashore
I
wanna
go
home
Lord,
I
wanna
go
home
I
just
wanna
go
home
Well,
I
feel
so
broken
up
I
just
wanna
go
home
Hoist
up
the
"John
B"
sail
See
how
the
mainsail
sets
Tell
the
captain
ashore
I
wanna
go
home
Well,
I
wanna
go
home
I
wanna
go
home
Lord,
I
feel
so
broken
up
I
just
wanna
go
home
Well,
I
feel
so
broken
up
I
wanna
go
home
