Subject: RE: songs about building boats/ships?
"They are building a ship in the Northlands
The Albertina they will call her when she's done, pump away
The Albertina she will serve us, the Albertina will preserve us
The Albertina they will call her when she's done, pump away"
The pump shanty Albertina, collected from George Herbert, Master Rigger & Cape Horner, RIP
