On Old Time Bawdy Sea Shanties Vol. 5 and bawdy it was: The second mate was Andy, By Christ, he had a dandy, 'Til they crushed his cock on a jagged rock, From cumming in the brandy; anyone? And in Loudon's version: The captain's daughter Charlotte, Was born and bred a harlot, Her thighs at night were lily white, By morning they were scarlet.
