Spinners

Biography:

The Spinners is a soul music vocal group, active for over 50 years, and with a long run of pop and R&B hits especially during the 1970s. The group, originating from Detroit, still tours regularly as of 2011.

The band is also listed occasionally as Detroit Spinners, or Motown Spinners (for their 1960s recordings with the Detroit label). These group names were used in the UK to avoid confusion with a British folk group also called The Spinners.

In 1954

The Dreadnaught
Bouncy.. drum, guitars Loud, lively.
Pick up rhythm with bass string lifts (Arr. Tony Bez)

Early Victorian Sea Shanty/ Folk song. Author unknown ( anyone help?)

Am D
There is a flash packet, flash packet of fame;
Am G C
She hails from New York and the Dreadnaught's her name;
G
She's bound to the westward where the stormy winds blow
N.C. Am G
And away to the westward the Dreadnaught will go;
Am G AM
Derry down, *down, down, derry down.* ( 2nd voice repeat)

Am D
Now the Dreadnaught she lies in the river Mersey,
Am G C
Awaiting the tugboat to take her to sea,
G
around the Rock Light where the salt tides do flow;
N.C. Am G
And away to the westward the Dreadnaught will go;
Am G Am
Derry down, down, down, derry down.

Am D
Now the Dreadnaught's a-howling down the wild Irish Sea,
Am G C
Her passengers merry with hearts full of glee,
Am G
Her sailors like lions they strut to and fro;
N.C. Am G
She's A Liverpool packet, o Lord, let her go;
Am G AM
Derry down, down, down, derry down.

Am D
Here's a health to the Dreadnaught and all her brave crew,
Am G C
To bold Captain Samuels, his officers, too;
G
And to those she can't carry its not that she's small
N.C. Am G
The Dreadnaught's a flier she can't take 'em all;
Am G AM
Derry down, down, down, derry down.
Am G AM
down, down, derry down.
Am G AM
down, down, derry down. repeat these 2 lines to finish
