There actually is an old sea shanty in Dutch, that states that all those who wish to sail as privateers, need to be men with beards! First written down and published in the 19th century but likely much older. We learned it in school as kids. Here's a Dutch folk band performing it: ua-cam.com/video/ddbTKf9hdi8/v-deo.html
Oh the year was seventeen-seventy-eight How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now! When a letter of marque came from the King To the scummiest vessel I've ever seen God Damn them all! I was told We'd cruise the seas for American gold We'd fire no guns, shed no tears Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier The last of Barrett's privateers. Oh Elcid Barrett cried the town, (how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!) For twenty brave men, all fishermen, who Would make for him the Antelope's crew {Chorus} God Damn them all! I was told We'd cruise the seas for American gold We'd fire no guns, shed no tears Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier The last of Barrett's privateers The Antelope sloop was a sickening sight. (how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!) She'd a list to port and her sails in rags, And a cook in the scuppers with staggers and jags. {Chorus} On the King's birthday we put to sea. (how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!) We were ninety-one days to Montego bay, Pumping like madmen all the way. {Chorus} On the ninety-sixth day we sailed again. (how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!) When a bloody great Yankee hove in sight With our cracked four-pounders we made to fight {Chorus} The Yankee lay low down with gold. (how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!) She was broad and fat and loose in stays, But to catch her took the Antelope two whole days {Chorus} Then at length we stood two cables away. (how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!) Our cracked four-pounders made an awful din, But with one fat ball the Yank stove us in {Chorus} The Antelope shook and pitched on her side. (how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!) Barrett was smashed like a bowl of eggs, And the maintruck carried off both me legs. {Chorus} So here I lay in my twenty-third year. (how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!) It's been six years since we sailed away, And I just made Halifax yesterday. {chorus til finish}

@@tangodown69 In the documentary "One Warm Line," Stan Rogers talks a little more about this. Basically he wanted a shanty where he had the lead part, so he wrote his own! Not so much that Stan didn't know any shanties, but rather that he was sick of singing the harmony parts.

@@HiiPPi3 You could also just look it up. Stan Rogers wrote and performed this song. I believe he's actually from Ontario Canada, hence the whole "Broken man on a Halifax pier"
It's a difficult song and I think the fellows here do an admirable job. I'd argue that a sea shanty (and most folk music) is not meant to be performed perfectly or by the letter. Rather, traditionally, folk songs are passed down through hundreds of years and take on their own forms. People take them and change the lyrics. They change and grow. Granted this is a modern shanty written in an old style. Still - these types of songs are largely for drinking and fun and rabble-rousing and aren't meant to be done with perfection in mind, but to be performed with heart and spirit and some punch to them! Moreover, historically, sea shanties began as work/labor songs! So the most "authentic" way to perform a shanty would be to get on a boat and sing it while you're hard at work. I doubt the originators of the old sea shanties were singing perfectly in key or in time! They were anything but trained vocalist. I think it's a ridiculous idea even to criticize a shanty sang at a pub - let it be sung out!
Dr. Dan Lawrence very true, I just find that this particular rendition is a bit stiff, not a lot of variation, almost flat. It's alright, I just fear their other stuff (like sugar in the hold for example) is a bit more lively
@@sagesaria is not about perfection, it's about passion. There's an old video of Stan Rogers, the writer of the song, raw recording of him sitting around a kitchen table singing this with his friends stomping their feet, singing with love and gusto
I love how they include the whoop in the chorus just like Stan Rogers did even if their pronouncing of Halifax is a little weird. 😋
What do you mean? How do you pronounce haleefax lol
@theo5460 theo5460 yeah I’m from New Brunswick. Lol. Just making a crack.
Halifax is also a placename in the UK, so their pronunciation isn't incorrect as such, but you'd be hard pressed to find a pier in our Halifax 😂

Well done guys! Our group has been trying to work this up but we're finding harmonies devilishly difficult to nail.
When me legs shot off the deck I didn't know that there would be a great song about it thanks from my Halifax pier. God damn them all.
finally, pure shanty
Oh the year was seventeen-seventy-eight
How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!
When a letter of marque came from the King
To the scummiest vessel I've ever seen

We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears

She was broad and fat and loose in stays,
But to catch her took the Antelope two whole days

But with one fat ball the Yank stove us in

Anyone else know this song from hearing it on "Due South"?
I grew up with it before Due South but that was an awesome episode. 😊
No, I know this song the way you're supposed to know it. Singing it with your buddies over beers in a kitchen
Yes I had never heard of this shanty until I heard Benton the Mountie sing it in ‘Due South’
This is one of the top songs loved by Canadian sailors! Canadians love their Stan Rogers and most of them probably believe that he wrote it
And who exactly do you propose wrote it, if not Stan Rogers?
OK , boo boo, run your mouth. Who wrote it. ?
Check your facts before you run your mouth !!!
Stan Rogers wrote it, after attending shanty sings and not knowing any shanties.

Unfortunately not enough Canadians know Stan.
Is Halifax, England pronounced "Hally fax" instead of "hell ah fax?"
I think it might be the southern accent, I'm northern and I pronounce it the same as Stan Rogers does like hal ah fax
Hally Fax - Southerner
I know growing in up in Canada its Hal ah fax.
I’m close to Bristol like the Longest Johns and I say more Hall uh fax
Hally fax from an east midlander
Wow, this is old.
It's been six years since this song was sang, and I just heard it yesterday, god damn them all!
God damn it all, went to bed
With Wellerman rattlin' 'bout my head
Now where's my rum, where's my tea
Forget the whale, just let him be
I'm stuck here in a sea shanty.
KINGS!
I was kinda hoping they were gonna sing it with Barrett's Privateers (the UA-cam channel)
‘Due South’ show from back in the 90s
Definitely good, but somehow it feels like through every cover I watch they're all missing the raw energy of Stan Roger's performances.
