The book's ISBN # 0292715021, LC call# ML3565.A27 Published by Un. of Texas, Austin for the American Folklore Society 1974 or 75? I cheched the DT and only recognized one, "Solid Fast" or World Of Misery" the Caribbean version of Shenendoah. I could give you the words but can't write the music or cords. Some of the songs; Pull Away Me Boys, Hell Of A Wedding On The Congo River, Fenney Brown(Sally's cousin), Georgie Break Me Neck, Fine Time Of Day,and St. Peter Down In Courtland Bay.These are all from Abrahams and are rowing songs, the tempo would change with the songs depending on the state of the water and how fast and hard they'd have to pull on the oars (fast water-white caps in a good breeze, through a chop, against the surf or current). An intersting use of the chorus, usually kept very short, would be to extend it every so often to afford the rowers a moment to catch their breath.An example (Think he break me neck),then for the coffee break (Hold him Georgie I think he break neck)every 10 or 15 pulls. I've been looking for his book, if you locate it please let me know. Bye for now Barry
