By the 1890s this is said to have been the most popular halyard chantey of all. Probably African-American in origin, there are versions in German and Norwegian.

Great picture. It's not of the singer, is it?

[wolfgpunkt]

@Cizcan It's not, I'm afraid. The singer is Mira Billotte of White Magic, who does not have any watery pictures available :)

Wish you'd put up Sea Chanty by them as well. It's a great song.
