Testo Sloop John B - Tom McRae
Testo della canzone Sloop John B (Tom McRae), tratta dall'album From the Lowlands
We come on the sloop John B
My grandfather and me
Around this old town, we do roam
Drinking all night
Got into a fight
Oh yeah
I feel so broke up
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail
See how the main sail sets
Call for the captain ashore, and let me go home
I wanna go home
Why won't you let me go home?
Oh yeah
I feel so broke up
I wanna go home
The first mate, he got drunk
Broke in the captain's trunk
Constable had to come, and take him away
Sherriff John Stone
Why don't you leave me alone?
Oh yeah
I feel so broke up
I wanna go home
So hoist up the John B sail
See how the main sail sets
Call for the captain ashore, and let me go home
I wanna go home
Why won't you let me go home?
Oh yeah
I feel so broke up
I wanna go home
The poor cook, he caught the fits
Threw away all my grits
And then he took, and he ate up all of my corn
Let me go home
Why won't you let me go home?
Oh yeah
This is the worst trip
I've ever been on
So hoist up the John B sail
See how the main sail sets
Call for the captain ashore, and let me go home
I wanna go home
Why won't you let me go home?
Oh yeah
I feel so broke up
I wanna go home
