Version 1[Verse] A We sailed on the ship John B, my grandfather and me E Around Nassau town we did roam A D Drinking all night, got into a fight A E A Well, I feel so homesick I wanna go home [Chorus] A So hoist up the John B sail, see how the mainsail sets E Call for the captain ashore, let me go home A D Let me go home, why don't you let me go home? A E A Well, I feel so homesick I wanna go home [Verse] A The first mate, he got drunk, broke up the people's trunk E Constable had to come and take him away A D Sheriff John Stone, why don't you leave me alone? A E A Well, I feel so homesick I wanna go home A Then the cook, he caught the fits, threw out all of my grits E Then he took and ate up all of my corn A D Let me go home, why don't you let me go home? A E A Well, this is the worst trip since I have been born [Chorus] A So hoist up the John B sail, see how the mainsail sets E Call for the captain ashore, let me go home A D Let me go home, why don't you let me go home? A E A Well, I feel so homesick I wanna go home
