| '''BIG SHIP, THE'''. AKA and see "Glise de/a Sherbrooke." English, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Originally the Quebecois reel "Glise a Sherbrooke," here rendered as a polka. Peter Kennedy evidently adapted it for the children's game-song called "The Big Ship Sails," "There's a Big Ship Sailing" and similar titles. Several Irish and British versions are extent, but all go along the lines:
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br> | |
| ''The big ship sails through the alley-alley-o''<br>
| |
| ''The alley-alley-o, the alley-alley-o;''<br>
| |
| ''The big ship sails through the alley-alley-o''<br>
| |
| ''On the last day of September.''
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| ''Mother, father, may I go''<br>
| |
| ''May I go, may I go?''<br>
| |
| ''Oh mother, father, may I go''<br>
| |
| ''On the last day of September?''
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| ''The captain says that'll never never do''<br>
| |
| ''Never never do, never never do.''<br>
| |
| ''The captain says that'll never never do''<br>
| |
| ''On the last day of September.''
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| ''The big ship sank to the bottom of the sea''<br>
| |
| ''The bottom of the sea, the bottom of the sea;''<br>
| |
| ''The big ship sank to the bottom of the sea''<br>
| |
| ''On the last day of September.''
