to fit the tall-tale frame and Ol' Stormalong has become a character harkening much to figures like Paul Bunyan.
Interesting, what?
Anyway, thank you again for putting these up!
Cheers!

Hey!
First off, I wanted to thank you so much for putting all these chanteys up - they're invaluable for putting in my writings and just very fun in general.
Also wanted to say that I find it interesting that I've heard this song sung in my childhood and in a completely different fashion.
Same tune, same chorus, but it seems to have been taken by the mountain men out west here in Colorado and made to fit some sort of legendary character. The lyrics, of course, have been duly modified

Thanks for sharing that interesting anecdote! It would be great to know more and if these really are related or if just a coincidence.
