level: beginner

This old sea shanty, also known as 'what will we do with a drunken sailor' or 'what do you do with a drunken sailor', is popular for a reason! It's a catchy tune, and not too hard to play on violin. Watch the hopping 1st finger on the fifths in the second bar, making sure you lift and place the finger cleanly and coordinate it with the bow. Try practicing it with a short pause in between if it's giving you trouble.

This video has sheet music and tab to help you learn the song more quickly, and it's repeated two times.
