Forrest Gump movie - Sloop John B lyrics
rate meSong by The Beach Boys<br /><br>
We come on the sloop John B<br>
My grandfather and me<br>
Around Nassau town we did roam<br>
Drinking all night<br>
Got into a fight<br>
Well I feel so broke up<br>
I want to go home<br>
<br>
So hoist up the John B's sail<br>
See how the mainsail sets<br>
Call for the Captain ashore<br>
Let me go home, let me go home<br>
I wanna go home, yeah yeah<br>
Well I feel so broke up<br>
I wanna go home<br>
<br>
The first mate he got drunk<br>
And broke in the Cap'n's trunk<br>
The constable had to come and take him away<br>
Sheriff John Stone<br>
Why don't you leave me alone, yeah yeah<br>
Well I feel so broke up I wanna go home<br>
<br>
So hoist up the John B's sail<br>
See how the mainsail sets<br>
Call for the Captain ashore<br>
Let me go home, let me go home<br>
I wanna go home, let me go home<br>
Why don't you let me go home<br>
(Hoist up the John B's sail)<br>
Hoist up the John B<br>
I feel so broke up I wanna go home<br>
Let me go home<br>
<br>
The poor cook he caught the fits<br>
And threw away all my grits<br>
And then he took and he ate up all of my corn<br>
Let me go home<br>
Why don't they let me go home<br>
This is the worst trip I've ever been on<br>
<br>
So hoist up the John B's sail<br>
See how the mainsail sets<br>
Call for the Captain ashore<br>
Let me go home, let me go home<br>
I wanna go home, let me go home<br>
Why don't you let me go home<br>
<br>
