I would think most sea shanties would be out of the running!

Thats pretty much all that The Rambling Sailor is about! And as for I'll Go List For A Sailor -

"My days were honey and my nights were the same
Till a man called Cobb from the ocean came
with his dark hair and his muscular frame
A captain on board of a whaler

He spent his money both brisk and free
With his tales of the land and his songs of the sea
And stole my Sarahs heart from me
And blighted the hopes of a tailor

Once I was with her and in came Cobb
'Avast!' he cried 'you blubbery swab
If you don't knock off I'll scuffle your knob'
And Sarah smiled on the sailor"
