"Sloop John B"
PROP # 1- The Beach Boys - Sloop John B
PROP # 3- Johnny Cash version
“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 bs 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”
Late afternoon on Bannister's Wharf, Newport, RI. TWO YEARS AGO TOMORROW! 12/17/06.
In the "America's Cup Runneth Over" photo essay.
