The poor cook he caught the fits

And threw away all my grits
                                         D
And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
          G
Let me go home
                         C    Am
Why don’t they let me go home
     G  -nc-                          G
This is the worst trip I’ve ever been on

So hoist up the John b's sail -Hoist up the John b's sail-

See how the mainsail sets -See how the mainsail sets-

Call for the Captain ashore
          D
Let me go home, let me go home
             G
I want to go home -let me go home-
