Right you are, Jody. Chanties without sexual content are like eunichs at a singles bar. I would be offended if you had laundered them. I've always liked "Paddy, Lay Back". It has the most singable chorus 'round the horn. Is that "ass" verse the one about the shirt? Dave Calderhead taught me "All For Me Grog". He had a swell verse at the end that was of a different comstruction.

I'm sick in the head and I haven't been to bed, Since first I came ashore with me plunder. I've seen elephants and snakes and I'm full of bellyaches So I think I'll take a lookout over yonder.

I look forward to hearing your recording. Mike Miller
