Description / content note: "If anyone steals my mangoes I will kill him." This song sung as the fishermen paddle their way home having put out their nets is done at a much more leisurely speed than the outward voyage. When sung in their lake canoes there is no drum, the drum and clapping were used only to keep the singers in time as if they were paddling. Paddling song with conical laced drum, beaten with sticks and clapping (-12.03-).
