Thanks to Radriano, I've finally found the song I was thinking of. It's The Bigler's Crew. I heard it on a CD from Lee Murdock, Great Lakes folksinger extraordinaire. I don't suppose there are many of you who are familiar with Great Lakes sea chanteys, huh?
Thanks, Richard. I feel much better now.
Thanks also to Bob Bolton, who gave the key that led in the right direction.
