Why Are Sea Shanties Making A Comeback?
Recently my wife was singing to our youngest grandchild. I’m used to this. Typically it’s a lullaby or some silly song about a stupid spider continually going up a water spout, knocked down only to go right back up again. But this song piqued my interest when it started with “what do you do with a drunken sailor?” Wait! What? Said grandchild was giving huge gummy grins while my wife was hoisting her up singing “way hay up she rises”. This of course means my next words were “why are you singing about drunken sailors to a baby.” My wife smiled and said it was a sea shanty.
