SAILORS ARE ALL AT THE BAR, THE. AKA – “AKA and see “Cheshire Rolling Hornpipe,” “Rolling Hornpipe (The).” English, Air (9/8 time). England, Northumberland. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. While one might imagine a bevy of sailors in a local pub, the title actually has to do with the fact that ships needed to be floated above a sand bar on the River Tyne, presumably waiting until the tide came in to allow them safe passage over it. "(This tune) was all that remained of what had evidently been a longer ballad when Bell's Rhymes of the Northern Bards was published in 1812, and it was included in that work. The tune is above a century old, and is very likely one of the old bagpipe hornpipes" (Bruce & Stokoe).
The sailors are all at the Bar,
They cannot get up to Newcastle,
They cannot get up to Newcastle;
Up with smoky Shields,
And hey for bonny Newcastle,
And hey for bonny Newcastle.
See also the similar “Drunken Sailor (5)” from Scottish fiddler and dancing master David Young's McFarlan Manuscript (c. 1740), and London publisher Daniel Wright’s “Rolling Hornpipe (The).”
