My own arrangement of the traditional American sea shanty "Cape Cod Girls". I arranged it for performance by Saint Petersburg's "Santy Choir Tallship Mir" that I play and sing with on occasion. The last verse, where "them Cape Cod girls don't wear no clothes" was tweaked by yours truly to give the guys in the group a chance to hoot 'n holler a bit, which gets audiences stoked up, and a good time is had by all.

Yes, the classic sea song you've heard before. I worked up this arrangement for the Russian-American-British sea shanty group I've been playing with. Though I can barely manage 3-finger chords in a couple of keys, I've been adding mandolin to some of our tunes. In this case the bluegrass chop of my F-hole F-style really adds some nice rollicking energy. I think.
