Drunken Sailor is among the best-known of the sea shanties and became a popular song among non-sailors during the 20th century. The infectious tune has lyrics that ask the question, What do we do with a drunken sailor early in the morning? Each subsequent verse suggests various forms of punishment for the poor chap. This spirited arrangement is sure to delight audiences with a sparkling and energetic setting of this familiar tune.
