I'm surprised not to find it in the Digitrad, but The Coasts of High Barbary is an old ballad, to the tune of one of the Child ballads. I learned the tune from a filk (Science Fiction fandom parody) of it called "High Barratry" about the folks who tried to steal Linux. Regarding the original, there is more information (and a MIDI) on this page from Lesley Nelson-Burns' (aka the Contemplator)'s Folk Music Site (WebCite copy). Hope this helps! Jesse Weinstein
