Sail on the Snoop Jumbie, my grandpappy and [F] me, over the seven seas we [Cm] did roam.
[Gm] [F] Drinking all night, [Fm] got into [Dm] a fight, [Am] when I feel so broke up, oh [C] yeah, I'm on a dole.
Doo [F]-ba-ba-doo-ba-ba-doo-ba-ba-doo-ba-doo!
Lift up the [Dm] Jumbie sail, see how the mainsail sails, all for the capital shore, [C] let me go home.
I [F] wanna go home, [G] I wanna go home, lift up the Jumbie [Gm]
sail, when [C] I feel so broke up, oh yeah, I'm on a dole.
[F]
He's a wicked man, he gets [Bb] drunk whenever he [F] can, and he [F] don't give a damn for a [C] grandpappy and me.

[F] when I feel so broke up, oh yeah, [C] I'm on a dole!
[F] Dooba, ba, dooba, ba, dooba, ba, dooba

I wanna go home
And I wanna [Cm] go hoist up the Jumbie's hand
[C] Well I feel so broke up, oh [C] yeah
I wanna go [F]
home
The first day he got drunk
[Fm] And he broke in [G] the captain's trunk
And the constable had to come and take him [C]
away
Sheriff [F] Johnstone, why don't you leave [Bb] me
[F] alone
[D] Well I [E] feel so broke up, oh yeah
I [A] wanna go home
Dooba, ba, [F] dooba, [C] ba, dooba, [F] ba, dooba
So hoist up the
[Dm] Jumbie's hand
And surely see how the mainsail sails
For the gaffin [F] I'm sure, let me [C] go home
I wanna [F] go home
Let me go home
And I [Gm] wanna go hoist [D] up the Jumbie's hand
Well I [F] feel so broke up, oh [C] yeah
I wanna go home
Dooba, ba, dooba, ba, dooba, ba, dooba
And surely see how the mainsail sails
For the gaffin I'm sure, let me [C] go [D] home
I [F] wanna go home
And I wanna [Bbm] go hoist up
[Gm] the Jumbie's hand
[F] Well I feel so broke [C] up, oh yeah
