  • "Jolly Boy", most likely is another term for a junior sailor. Jolly Jack or Jolly Tar are more frequently used terms, and easier to find.

    .

    In the context of this song, the Jolly Boys were the young sailors who dove for sponges. They would tie ropes around themselves and dive overboard, usually weighted with a large stone to more rapidly reach the bottom, and harvest sponges.

  • i think a jolly boy is another name for a cabin boy

  • Oh OK, thank you.

    As for links, Youtube doesnt allow full URLs in the comments, so what people often do is just past the part of the URL that begins with "watch?v="

  • Shoot. I can't get the link in here. Probably a spam filter to prevent links.

    Basically, search for "bounding main gina" and it's the first one that comes up.

  • Gina gives a detailed explanation of the song during our Skokie show. The clip is also in YouTube.  I'll try to get it in here.

  • What do they think a "jolly boy" is?
