Drunken Sailor | Classic Sea Shanty Reimagined as Alternative Folk Rock

⚓ Drunken Sailor (What Shall We Do with a Drunken Sailor?) — the classic sea shanty reimagined as a wild alternative folk-rock remix, with a rough male baritone, rowdy crew vocals, energetic fiddle, and a whole lot of trouble!

Who's gonna drag him out of trouble Before the morning comes? He lost one boot somewhere on the landing, Swears that the floor is rolling like the sea, Tried to salute a chair in the corner, Then asked the chair to drink with him. Hold him steady, boys, here we go, Nobody knows where this night will go! What shall we do with a drunken sailor? (Hey!) What shall we do with a drunken sailor? (Hey!) Pick him up before he hits the floor — Early in the morning! He challenged the clock to a fistfight, Told the old bartender he could steer, Climbed on the table, called for the captain — The captain hasn't been here in years! Hold him steady, boys, here we go, He's got another bad idea — oh no! What shall we do with a drunken sailor? (Hey!) What shall we do with a drunken sailor? (Hey!) Pick him up before he hits the floor — Early in the morning! All right, boys... Any sensible suggestions? NO! 🎻 Instrumental Break Now he's wearing somebody's jacket, One sock missing and his shirt inside out, Says he can swim all the way to Dover — Someone better turn this fool around! One more round? (No!) One more song? (Yeah!) Who's taking Johnny home? NOT ME! What shall we do with a drunken sailor? Look at him now... He can't even find the door. What shall we do with a drunken sailor? (Hey!) What shall we do with a drunken sailor? (Hey!) Get him home before he starts once more — Early in the morning! What shall we do with a drunken sailor? (Hey!) What shall we do with a drunken sailor? (Hey!) Nobody knows, so leave him on the floor — Early in the morning! Who's taking Johnny home? NOT ME! ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚓ ENJOYED THE CHAOS? 👍 Like the video if this sea shanty made you smile. 💬 Tell us your favorite moment in the comments. 🔔 Subscribe to Remixed Verses for more traditional songs with a completely new sound. 🎵 Explore more in our Sea Shanties & Folk Songs Reimagined playlist.
