- Haul Away Joe
This is an example of a "short haul" chanty from the days of sailing. This song would be sung
when the sailors had to take up only a few inches of line that was under great stress,
such as when trimming the main sheet. The chanty singer would sing the song while
the sailors rested and everyone would give one monumental heave on the final "Joe" of
each stanza. The chanty singer would make the song last as long as was necessary to
get the job done making up verses as he went along.
When I was a little boy, so my mother told me, to me.
