Spanish Ladies

"Spanish Ladies" is a traditional British naval song, describing a voyage from Spain to the Downs from the viewpoint of ratings of the Royal Navy.
== Origins ==
A ballad by the name "Spanish Ladies" was registered in the English Stationer's Company on December 14, 1624.〔Palmer, Roy (ed.). ''The Oxford Book of Sea Songs''. Oxford University Press (Oxford), 1986.〕 The oldest mention of the present song does not appear until the 1796 logbook of HMS ''Nellie'', however, making it more likely a Napoleonic era invention.〔 The timing of the mention in the ''Nellie'''s logbook suggests that the song was created during the First Coalition (1793–96), when the British navy carried supplies to Spain to aid its resistance to revolutionary France. It probably gained in popularity during the later Peninsular War when British soldiers were transported throughout the Iberian peninsula to assist rebels fighting against their French occupation. After their defeat of the Grande Armée, these soldiers were returned to Britain but forbidden to bring their Spanish wives, lovers, and children with them.〔Venning, Annabel. ''Following the Drum: The Lives of Army Wives and Daughters, Past and Present''. Headline Book Publishing (London), 2004. ISBN 9780755312580.〕
The song predates the proper emergence of the sea shanty. Shanties were the work songs of merchant sailors, rather than naval ones. However, in his 1840 ''Poor Jack'', Captain Frederick Marryat reports that the song "Spanish Ladies"—though once very popular—was "now almost forgotten" and he included it in whole in order to "rescue it from oblivion".〔 The emergence of shanties in the mid-19th century then revived its fortunes〔Chappell, William. ''Popular Music of the Olden Time''. (London) 1855.〕 to the point where it is now sometimes included as a "borrowed song" within the genre.〔Hugill, Stan. ''Shanties from the Seven Seas: Shipboard Work-Songs from the Great Days of Sail''. (London) 1961.〕
