Sloop John B

Bob Elling

Sides Face, Grand Square  (break substitutes Head Ladies Center, Teacup Chain)
Well on the Sloop John B my grandfather and me
And around Nassau town we did roam
We were drinking all night, Got into a fight
Well, I feel so broke up, well I want to go home
Circle Left
Well we hoist up the John B sail, See how the mainsail sets
Call for the captain ashore, I want to go home
Do an allemande Left and Swing your own
Promenade along
Well I feel so broke up, well I want to go home

Well the Head (Side) 2 Ladies Chain, Sides (Heads) Rollaway
The Sides (Heads) Star Thru and DoSaDo
Make your wave, Spin Chain & Exchange your Gears and go
Go all the way around the ring and make those stars and go
Go, the boys follow the girls, go all the way around you know
Now Swing with the Corner girl, Promenade home
We were drinking all night, Got into a fight
Well, I feel so broke up, well I want to go home

Well I feel so broke up I want to go home
