Solid Fas'
(rowing shanty from the Caribbean island of St. Vincent,
derived from "Shenandoah")
Solid fas', I come to tell you
HURRAH, MY ROLLING RIVER
"Solid fas'," our captain cry out
WE ARE BOUND AWAY FROM THIS WORLD OF MISERY
Nobody knows about our toilin'
Only God Almighty knows about our danger
"Whale ahead," my little gunman cry out
"Solid fas'," my little captain answer
And on our way, she roll and shiver
Down in our way, she spout dirty water
"Make her so bold," my strokeman cry out
"Haul and gi' me," my centerman cry out
Nobody knows about our hardship
Our shipowner, she don't know our hardship
Misery into the ocean
Misery in the deep wide ocean
Recorded by the Boarding Party
