This version is arranged for 2-part choir + piano by Rollo Dilworth for the Appalachian Children’s Chorus Festival of Young Voices.

Approximate performance time: 3:00.

The song appears to have originated with Canadian and American voyageurs or fur traders traveling down the Missouri River in canoes, and has developed several different sets of lyrics.

By the mid 1800s versions of the song had become a sea shanty heard or sung by sailors in various parts of the world.
