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)
Hoist up the John B
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

       這首歌是美國搖滾團體The Beach Boys在1966年的作品,這首是取自於西印度群島的民謠The John B. Sails。團裡的吉他手Al Jardine是一位民謠歌曲的歌迷,建議團裡的主要創作人Brian Wilson應該要作Sloop John B的版本,後來Al Jardine說:「Brian 在鋼琴前,我說是否我能坐下,給你聽我的音樂,然後我就彈出那首歌的和弦,然後問他,記得這首歌嗎?然後Brian說了一些話,但我不放棄,馬上再進行修改歌曲的動作,結果他接受,這首歌就完成了。」
