A Sailor's Prayer A tale of men being shanghaied from drinking establishments by drinking "bad beer". "Oh Lord above, send down a dove, to cut the throats of them those blokes whose sells bad beer to sailors" "Shanghaied Dredger"is another beauty, and is also about being... well shanghaied for another reason.

I tend to prefer them sung without the added noise of musical instruments. I have found some very good albums on Amazon, perhaps the best being by Johnny Collins: http://www.amazon.com/Shanties-Songs-Sea-Johnny-Collins/dp/B00001OHA5/ref=pd_bbs_sr_3?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1223096940&sr=8-3 Perhaps the best chantie I've heard yet is Collins' version of "South Australia" on the above album. The song is so manly as sung by Collins that I believe the first time I listened I could actually feel my sperm growing chest hair.

It's one of my favorite sea shanties (as a matter of fact, I posted the lyrics on the AoM forum). This makes indeed for a very manly post.
