"These unapologetic shanties and songs resonate with all the long-voyages of sailing ships on the track from Liverpool to America or around Cape Horn. Shanties helped coordinate the heavy work of hauling upper tops'l and upper t'gallant halliards, heaving -up the anchor with capstan or windlass, and pumping ship. 'Forebitters', or 'main-hatch songs' helped pass a dull hour at sea."
Heave away me Johnnies -- Won't you go my way -- Sailor's alphabet -- The hogeye man -- Sally Brown -- Congo river -- The Florida's cruise -- Strike the bell -- Haul away for Rosie-O -- Hello, somebody! -- Roll the woodpile down -- The plains of Mexico -- South Australia -- The gals o' Chile -- Coast of Peru -- Goodbye, fare ye well -- The rope with the golden strands -- Rockport farewell -- Dear old Liverpool town -- Liverpool Judies -- One more day -- A Liverpool packet.
