Handy, me boys! - lyrics
Chorus. Handy, me boys, so handy!
Why can't you be so handy, O!
Handy, me boys, so handy!
1. O, up aloft this yard must go, Handy, me boys, so handy!
O, up aloft from down below, Handy, me boys, so handy!
2. O, growl you may but go you must.
You growl too much, your head they'll bust.
Chorus. Handy, me boys, so handy!
We're all damn fond of brandy, O!
Handy, me boys, so handy!
3. Your advance is gone, you're at sea again.
Around Cape Horn through the hail and rain.
4. Two months' advance is blown away.
So you make your port and you take your pay.
5. O, rouse and shake her is the cry.
The bloody top-mast sheave is dry.
Chorus. Handy, me boys, so handy!
The old man is a dandy, O!
Handy, me boys, so handy!
6. Around Cape Horn we're bound to go.
Around Cape Stiff, through the ice and snow.
7. We're bound down south around Cape Horn.
You'll wish to hell you'd never been born.
8. O, a handy cook and a steward too.
They spoil the grub they give the crew.
Chorus. Handy, me boys, so handy!
Why can't you be so handy, O!
Handy, me boys, so handy! - Розваги
We are truly blessed to have artists like you keep these songs alive. Thankyou
Thanks, Rolf. I'm glad you enjoy this. With everyone's support I hope to be able to keep these songs going for a long time.
This man is literally the reason why AC Black flags ship rides weren’t boring 😂
Thanks Beastly. I'm glad to hear that the ship rides were good!
I always love your videos and voice and thank you for the best moments in my gaming experience
You are welcome. And thanks for your kind words.
It's amazing! Keep going please, I absolutely love the idea.
Love all the way from Egypt.
Thanks. I hope to be able to keep going a long time. The support helps a lot.
Highlight of my week: thank you so much sir!
My pleasure!
I’ve been in love with these kinds of songs since I was 13 and I’m glad to see the community online growing larger and larger! :D
Yes, it's quite remarkable that a kind of fringe folk song style get so much action online. I love it.
Awesome! "Good morning ladies all" or "Whiskey Johnny" next! :)
One of my favorites! Thank you sir
Mine too! You are welcome.
Dear Sean, I wanted to thank you for the shanties. They helped me get through the toughest of times. Once again, from the bottom of my heart thank you!
Bartows2, you are most welcome. It is my pleasure and I am very glad to hear that the music can be something positive in people's lives.
Ah another week, another great shanty.
Thanks! That's nice to hear.
Sounds awesome! Thanks for all the information you added in the background. I can't wait for future videos!
Thanks! And you're welcome. More videos to come. Everyone's support is invaluable!
you have such a pleasant voice, i love it.!!!
please don't stop there..
I hope, for more great songs.!
Thanks! I hope to be able to keep going for a long time. Everyone's support is invaluable!
I had an awesome day, (not to brag) and finding your channel was the icing on the cake! Thank you!
Hi Yoder, Wow. Firstly, I really happy that you had a good day. Secondly, I happy that you found my channel. Thirdly! I'm really happy that finding my channel was the ICING (!) on an already good day. Thanks for coming to the channel. Seán.
This has become a highlight of my week. One can’t but help smile when watching and listening to these. Thank you for sharing Sean!!
The pleasure is mine!
All I needed to see was the tilte "shanty of the week" and I was sold. Subscribed.
Welcome!
here from the youtube algorythm. I'm glad you showed up in there!
Yay algorithm! Thanks for stopping by!
Greetings and love from Costa Rica 🇨🇷
Keep up with you work, it is amazing!
Hi Rodny, nice to hear from Costa Rica! Thanks for stopping by the channel. Seán
Thank you, sir, for your talent and wonderful voice
You are most welcome. Thanks for listening.
Keeps getting better and better.
Thanks, Rene.
I I like the way you use the own voice in the background, it makes it sound "entrancing" as you said in your description.
Thanks, Yuri. I'm glad you like it. I wish I could have my actual crew with me, but alas, the times are what they are. At least when it's all me I can tell me what to do. But then, I can't always do what I tell me to do.
Now, this is a real shanty.
Yeah, that's one of the best things about this one: it has no pretence about being anything other than a pure shanty.
Thank you very much Master Dagher!
You are welcome. I'm glad you like it.
Sounds great
Thank you Lord Scott!
Someone needs to make another sailing game so we can here you on the waves
That's a great idea.
Are you the shanty singer in assassins creed black flag?
Yes. Nils Brown, Michiel Schrey, Clayton Kennedy and I sang in Black Flag, AC3, Rogue and Unity.
That's so cool! You are a living legend!!
Can’t wait for Nils
Soon.
Fun 👍🏻👍🏻
Exactly. Nothing more, nothing less.
niceee
Thanks!
매번 잘 보고있습니다 :)
I'm glad you keep coming back!
Could you do Lowlands away and shallow brown?
Lowlands is coming soon. I'll get to Shallow Brown eventually. There is this version with La Nef, which probably the best I can do: open.spotify.com/track/1jvoFmqoH52OJbNi8LFxl6
There is a new live album coming with La Nef (7 men) and Vancouver's Chor Leoni (70 men). It's going to be epic.
Is it just me, or does this one end on a note that makes it feel incomplete?
I agree. That's sort off what attracted me to this song. I know it can make it not feel final at the end, but I really liked that it opened up some god harmonic possibilities. Still, kind of a strange song.
Do you have any of these arrangements on sheet music?
I'm going to put out a book/pdf when I have enough of them done.
