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, yeah yeah Well I feel so broke up I wanna go
home
The first mate he got drunk And broke in the Cap'n's trunk
The constable had to come and take him away Sheriff John Stone Why don't
you leave me alone, yeah yeah 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,
let me go home Why don't you let me go home Hoist up the John B's sail I
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
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, let me go home Why don't you let me go
home
( Nested Song - "Moonlight
Feels Right" )
The wind blew some luck in my direction I
caught it in my hands today I finally made a tricky french connection
you winked and gave me your o.k. I'll take you on a trip beside the
ocean and drop the top at Chesapeake Bay ain't nothing like the sky to
dose a potion the moon'll send you on your way Moonlight feels right,
moonlight feels right. We'll lay back and observe the constellations and
watch the moon smiling bright I'll play the radio on southern stations
'cause southern belles are hell at night you say you came to Baltimore
from Ole Miss a class of '74 gold ring the eastern moon looks ready for
a wet kiss to make the tide rise again Moonlight feels right, moonlight
feels right.
We'll see the sun come up on sunday morning and
watch it fade the moon away I guess you know I'm giving you a warning
'cause me and moon are itching to play I'll take you on a trip beside
the ocean and drop the top at Chesapeake Bay ain't nothing like the sky
to dose a potion the moon'll send you on your way Moonlight feels right,
moonlight feels right.
