about

As if at that time there was a hypothetical random playlist of the most singable songs and the best known melodies, here are seven Shanties collected in a powerful 6-minute medley: Bully in the Alley, Roll the old Chariot, Santi Anno, Haul away Joe, Drunken Sailor, The coast of high Barbary and Maid of Amsterdam. Songs that were commonly sung while sailing.

lyrics

Oh help me Bob, I'm bully in the alley
Wey hey, bully in the alley
Help me Bob, I'm bully in the alley
Bully down in Shinbone Al

Now Sally is a girl in Shinbone Alley
Wey hey, bully in the alley
Sally is the girl that I spliced nearly
Bully down in Shinbone Al

I found by self out under three-oh
Wey hey, bully in the alley
I found by self with time so free-oh
Bully down in Shinbone Al

So! Help me Bob, I'm bully in the alley
Wey hey, bully in the alley
Help me Bob, I'm bully in the alley
Bully down in Shinbone Al

And we'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
And we'll all hang on behind

Oh, we'd be alright
If the wind's in ourselves
We'd be alright
If the wind's in ourselves
We'd be alright
If the wind's in ourselves
And we'll all hang on behind

And we'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
And we'll all hang on behind

Oh, we'd be alright
If we make it 'round the horn
We'd be alright
If we make it 'round the horn
We'd be alright
If we make it 'round the horn
And we'll all hang on behind

And we'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
And we'll all hang on behind

Oh Santy Anno gained the day
Away Santy Anno
Oh Santy Anno gained the day
All on the plains of Mexico

Mexico, oh Mexico
Away Santy Anno
Mexico is a place I know
All on the plains of Mexico

Them yaller skin girls I do adore
Away Santy Anno
With their shinin' eyes
And their cold black hair
All on the plains of Mexico

Mexico, oh Mexico
Away Santy Anno
Mexico is a place I know
All on the plains of Mexico

When I was a little lad
And so my mother told me
Way, haul away
We'll haul away, Joe
That if I did not kiss the gals
Me lips would all grow moldy
Way, haul away
we'll haul away, Joe

Way, haul away
The good ship is a-bolding
Way, haul away
we'll haul away, Joe
Way, haul away
The sheet is now unfold-ing
Way, haul away
we'll haul away, Joe!
What will we do with a drunken sailor?
What will we do with a drunken sailor?
What will we do with a drunken sailor?
Early in the morning!

Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Early in the morning!

Shave his belly with a rusty razor
Shave his belly with a rusty razor
Shave his belly with a rusty razor
Early in the morning!

Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Early in the morning!

There were two lofty ships
From old England came
Blow high, blow low and so sail we

One was the Prince of Luther
And the other Prince of Wales
Cruisin' down the coast of High Barbary

Look ahead, look-astern
Look the weather in the lee!
Blow high! Blow low! And so sailed we
I see a wreck to windward
And a lofty ship to lee!
A-sailing down along
The coast of High Barbary

Oh, are you a pirate or a man o' war? cried we
Blow high! Blow low! And so sailed we
Oh no! I'm not a pirate
But a man-o-war, cried he
A-sailing down along
The coast of High Barbary

In Amsterdam there lived a maid
Mark well what I do say!
In Amsterdam there lived a maid
And she was mistress of her trade
I'll go no more a-roving
With you fair maid!

A roving, a roving
Since roving's been my ru-i-in
I'll go no more a roving
With you fair maid!
I asked this maid to take a walk
Mark well what I do say!
I asked this maid out for a walk
That we might have some private talk
I'll go no more a roving
With you fair maid

A roving, a roving
Since roving's been my ru-i-in
I'll go no more a roving
With you fair maid!
