Here we perform a fantastic song about the sea. This one is a Coope, Boyes and Simpson original, with the lyrics written by Lester Simpson. If you haven't come across them, look them up now (http://www.coopeboyesandsimpson.co.uk)! Their album 'What We Sing' is in our manager's top 5 albums of all time. We hope we do it justice! There's one more of us, so the arrangement is a little different.

The Longest Johns are based in Thornbury, Bristol, and are a folk band specialising in traditional working songs and shanties. (They sometimes do other songs they like too, but don't tell anyone.)
