	'''Sea shanties''' are working songs commonly sung aboard [[ship]]s by sailors. They were especially common among navy men and [[Piracy\|pirates]]. The shanty consisted of two parts, the chant and the chorus. The chant would often be initiated by a single crewman who would sing the opening lines and establish the beat, and the chorus would then come as the rest of the crew would join in.<ref>{{WP\|Sea shanty}}</ref>		'''Sea shanties''' are working songs commonly sung aboard [[ship]]s by sailors.
