Here's another Shanty of the Week. Bully in the Alley is pretty well-know; I sang it on Assassin's Creed and there are many other well-known versions out there. I just like the songs so much that I decided to include it here anyway. One of my favourite parts about the song is the improvising that the shantyman can do in the verses.
All of the Shanties are now available at Bandcamp: seandagher.ban...

Bully in the alley
Chorus :
Oh help me Bob, I'm bully in the alley
Wey hey, bully in the alley!
Help me Bob, I'm bully in the alley
Bully down in Shinbone Al!
I walked up to the Anchor Inn,
Wey hey, bully in the alley!
I barged the door, and walked right in.
Bully down in Shinbone Al!
And there was Sally that I love so dearly,
Sally got well nigh, almost, nearly.
Sally could dance and Sally could spin,
I bought her rum and I bought her gin.
For seven long years I courted Sally,
But all she did was dilly and dally.
And now I've spent a total folly,
I'll go to sea and heave and haul-y.
I'll leave Sally and I'll become a sailor,
Heave on board of a Bedford whaler
If I even get back I'll marry little Sally,
Have six kids and live in Shinbone Alley.
There he goes, the old man saying, One more song and then we’re belaying.
