Sleup Dunby!
[D] Sleup Dunby!
[G] [C]
I'm on the Sleup Dunby, grandfather and me
Found Nassau town, we [G] did a row
[C] Drinkin' all night, got into [F] a fight
[D]
[C] Well, a fieldster broke [G] up, I wanna [C] go low
First mate, he got drunk, broke him the captain's bun
The constable had to come and take [G] him away
Sheriff [C] Dunston, wants to leave [F] me alone
[D]
[Cm] Well, a fieldster broke [E] up, I wanna [C] go home
So, once I'm in Long Beach, man
See how the main trail pass
Call for the captain ashore, let [G] me go home
Let [C] me go home
I [F] wanna go [D] home, yeah, yeah
[C] A fieldster broke [G] up, I wanna [C] go home
First cook, he cut the shit, threw away all my bricks
Then he took and ate up all of [G] my food
Let me [C] go home, let me go home
Why don't they let [F] me go home?
[Dm]
Wish that [C] the Dunbees stay [G] away
Well, [C] I am lookin' on
So, wish that the Dunbees stay away
See how the main trail pass
Call for the captain ashore, [G] let me go home
Let me [C] go home
I [F] really wanna go [D] home
A [C] fieldster [G] broke up, I [C] wanna go home
I wanna go home
