title = {What shall we do (Drunken Sailor)},
}
% Eines der ältesten bekannten Shanties. Häufig wurden solche Shanties von
% Matrosen auf großen Schiffen gesungen, um rhythmische Arbeitsabläufe zu
% koordinieren - etwa beim Segelsetzen, wenn viele Männer gemeinsame „Hoo-
% Ray“ das Seil ziehen mussten. Es gibt noch unzählige weitere Strophen, die
% im Laufe der Zeit hinzugedichtet wurden. [Quelle: Codex]
