Hi Doodlepip,

I don't believe there is any other source besides the manuscript from Cecil Sharp (of John Short) on which Tom Brown of "Short Sharp Shanties" based that rendition. If you're having trouble hearing what Tom sings, perhaps you could jot down what you do hear (or think you hear) and we can fill in the gaps.

Tom Brown (doc.tom on Mudcat) could possibly supply the words he sang—only a couple verses of which (correct me if I'm wrong) were actually sung by the chantyman John Short.

There must certainly be other parodies of "Dixie's Land" like this, too.

As far as sailor-generated parodies go, there is one in Hugill's unabridged _Shanties from the Seven Seas_. I don't remember offhand exactly what Hugill printed, but I red between the lines (always a perilous endeavor) and came up with this rendition.
