Six13 - The Red Sea Shanty: A Pirate Passover
Музыка
It's #Passover on the high seas, mates! We couldn't help but dive right in to the sea shanty craze -- especially once we realized how well they work as horas -- and we weren't content to stop at just "The #Wellerman". Come drop anchor and celebrate freedom with us and a hearty round of 19th century sailing songs! (We're so contemporary.) #ChagSameach!

Lyrics:
There once was a time in Egypt land
The Jews were slaves in the desert sand
We cried out for an outstretched hand
Oh, let my people go
Soon may our freedom come
To bring us liberty, peace and fun
One day, when the Pharaoh's outdone
He’ll let my people go
Brave Moses, with his shepherd’s rod
had heard the mighty voice of God
It said “tell Pharaoh, clear and strong,
to let My people go”
Soon may our freedom come...
What shall we do with the middle matzah? (3x)
Early in the seder
Hide it away, it's the afikoman (3x)
Early in the seder
Oy vey, let's get some prizes (3x)
Later in the seder
Soon may our freedom come...
Now Pharaoh’s heart was not appeased
“No Hebrew slave shall ever go free!”
But Moses said, “Let's wait and see”
The plagues began to grow
(Oy!)
Soon may our freedom come...
Just lean to the left and we’ll tell the tale
Of how we left Egypt
God split the sea and we walked across
With no need for a ship
But first, before we get to that
There’s sons and questions four
Just when you think it’s almost done
there's three hours more (2x)
For Pharaoh sent men after us
Their lives would soon be lost
And we spill wine drops from our cups
‘cause freedom had a cost (2x)
So every year we celebrate
our freedom with a smile
With Moses
and Ramses II
Yocheved, the Levite
The Pharaoh's daughter
and Aaron and Miriam
On the Egyptian Nile
Hey, lads, the seder has come
With questions asked by the youngest one
We'll sing and have some fun
For wonders long ago
Egyptian first-born sons were lost
The Sea of Reeds we firmly crossed
They followed, but ‘twas at great cost
They all were dragged below
Hey, lads, the seder is done
We told our tale of redemption
L’shana haba’a (Next year)
b'Yerushalayim (in Jerusalem)

Extra points for the Gilligan's Island theme in there.

This is awesome!!! I'm a Christian but my friends, who are Jewish sent this to me. Loved it so much! You guys are so talented!
Rarely has a tune filled me with such delight! A superb re-write. Were I in Israel today, I’d make it a mission to teach this melody to all.
I'm an English teacher in Israel. Love these catchy songs with easy English and lyrics on screen
This is what I always needed on Passover, but didn’t know it until now.
Shalom to everyone celebrating Passover God be praised now and forever more he has Risen

Thank you! My 7 year old has this on repeat and is trying to learn it to sing at tonight’s Seder! Chag Sameach!
I was testing Google Song Search by whistling the Theme from Gilligan’s Island and this was what popped up. ( made sense after I progressed past the other two elements of this adapted medley) Surprisingly pleasant listening to a superb a cappella production. Bravo!
This group is absolutely brilliant, l really can't say enough about how talented andd creative they are.
I honestly can’t help, but listen to this song on repeat. I managed to figure out how to play it on my piano by ear, however the key of the song changes 3 times. Was it a challenge? Yes. Was it worth learning how to play on piano? Most definitely yes.
I'm not even Jewish, but I enjoyed this thoroughly.

Utterly brilliant! My sea shanty obsessed children will love this. I have a feeling this is going to become required listening in my home each Pesach.
Yishar kokhakhem!
It's a good thing I heard this after both seders - tears of laughter might have fallen into the eggs in salt water! Well done!
Simply wonderful! I fell in love with your voices when "Bohemian Hanukkah" was recommended to me; have been a fan since then. Now I sing this shanty all day long! Shalom from Puerto Rico!
מאוד מאוד יפה תודה רבה על שיר מצוין ושמח
This is delightful. My-son-the-folk-singer does mostly Celtic music and sea shanties, but also Hebrew, Yiddish and Ladino music on his KZread channel "The Foxy Bard." I've got to make sure he learns this Red Sea shanty in time for Pesakh.
Didn't think you could top last year's "A Lion King Passover" -but ya did. Pure fun...Thanks, guys!
Love It!!! Hag Pesach Samach!!!
HAPPY PASSOVER.

I'm impressed and grateful you sang of the Reed Sea and not the Red Sea as is commonly and mistakenly saud.
Beyond creative, clever and fun. Bravo, men! ❤❤❤

Yeah the spaghetti arm was especially wonderful! but that was so great that you also included little cameos from so many others!
Watch this video about 100 times over and over again that’s how good it is!

Happy Passover!!! I absolutely loved this. I played flute in a local sea shanty virtual concert this month and my husband and I had an actual debate over whether the Gilligan’s Island theme counts as a shanty. It does! So thank you for putting that to rest. I love your videos and appreciate your creativity, especially during this time.
This is the night before I do seder so it makes sense that I just watched it now, and it’s really funny🤗
I'm not Jewish so a lot of the context was lost on me, but this put a smile on my face. Well done!
Their best ever.
LOVE this! Clever lyrics, fantastic voices! You're all absolutely adorable as are your kids! Thank you for this very enjoyable passover song!
My favorite borrow is from "What Shall We Do with a Drunken Sailor." Oh. My.
Fantastic! Love this new Pesach tune from Six13! Chag Sameach!
I watch their videos every pesach and chanukah and whenever I want to listen to them.! Chag sameach!
Brilliant Made feel good
Absolutely excellent, thank you SO much, shhhhaaaaarrrrriiiiinnnnggggggg!!! Have a wonderful Pesah!
So much fun. Have sent out to all my pirate friends, Jews and non alike.
I'm not an expert, but the mixing of all the voices sounded amazing, perfect. Of course the video was incredible too.

Thanks for making mine and mothers pre pesach and erev pesach cooking more exciting because you just made my dream come true I was for to turn the sea shanty into a Jewish sea shanty so thank you so much I love all you music but this is my most favourite song ever
