"'''Gang-Plank Galleon'''"<ref name=DKJamz>''[[DK Jamz]]'' tracklist</ref> is a recurring musical theme in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]] composed by [[David Wise]]. It is almost always associated with [[King K. Rool]], as well as the eponymous [[Gangplank Galleon]]. The theme first appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', playing in the [[Gang-Plank Galleon|final level of the same name]].

==Composition==
The introduction of the theme has a {{wp|sea shanty}} feel, representing the pirate-esque appearance of the stage where the theme is originally heard, though it quickly segues into a more intense battle theme. The theme is loosely based on the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] port of the title theme from ''{{wp|Sid Meier's Pirates!}}'', another game developed by [[Rare Ltd.|Rare]].

==Arrangements==
===''Donkey Kong Country'' series===
====''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''====
''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' features an arrangement of "Gang-Plank Galleon" titled "'''Snakey Chantey'''"<ref name=Trilogy>''[[Donkey Kong Country Trilogy]]'' tracklist</ref> composed by [[Grant Kirkhope]]. While the intro is similar to the original theme, the rest is now in a swing jazz style. This arrangement plays in [[Rattle Battle (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Rattle Battle]] and on the ship hold in [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Glimmer's Galleon]].

====''Donkey Kong Country'' (Game Boy Advance)====
The [[Game Boy Advance]] port of ''[[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' features a faithful arrangement of "Gang-Plank Galleon" very similar to the original, though with slightly different instrumentation. This arrangement is used for the same purpose as in the original ''Donkey Kong Country''.

====''Donkey Kong Country 2'' (Game Boy Advance)====
''[[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 2]]'', the [[Game Boy Advance]] port of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', features a faithful arrangement of "Snakey Chantey" titled "'''Snakey Shanty'''" in the game's sound test. It is very similar to the original version, though it has slightly different instrumentation. Like in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', this arrangement can be heard in [[Rattle Battle (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Rattle Battle]], but it is replaced by "Klomp's Romp" in [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Glimmer's Galleon]].

===''Donkey Kong Land'' series===
====''Donkey Kong Land''====
''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'' features an 8-bit chiptune arrangement of "Gang-Plank Galleon" arranged by David Wise titled '''"Gangplank Galleon Ahoy!"'''<ref name=Norgate>[http://www.graemenorgate.com/main_files/downloads.htm Graeme Norgate's website]</ref> It can be heard in the ship levels. The second part of the theme is drastically different than the original version, instead sounding similar to the introduction but with a more serious tone. 

This arrangement returns in the [[Game Boy Color]] version of ''[[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|Donkey Kong Country]]'', where it is reused for the same purpose as in the original ''Donkey Kong Country''.

====''Donkey Kong Land 2''====
''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'' features an 8-bit arrangement of "Snakey Chantey" arranged by [[Grant Kirkhope]]. It is a somewhat faithful to the ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' original. It plays only in the level [[Pirate Panic (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Pirate Panic]].

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
====''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''====
''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' features an arrangement of "Gang-Plank Galleon" titled '''"King K.Rool / Ship Deck 2"''' arranged by [[Shōgo Sakai]]. The arrangements begins as sea shanty like the original, but it incorporates a hard rock tone midway through. It can be played on the [[Rumble Falls (stage)|Rumble Falls]] stage and during the roll call if the player beats Classic or All-Star mode as either [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Diddy Kong]]. It also plays in [[SmashWiki:The Lake|The Lake]] level in [[SmashWiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]].

This arrangements returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', where it can be played on the [[Kongo Jungle (Super Smash Bros.)|Kongo Jungle 64]] stage, and in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', where it can be played on any ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]''- and ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]''-series stage.

====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' features a new arrangement of "Gang-Plank Galleon" arranged by ACE. It heavily focuses on the brass and also has some vocals. Before the theme's second section, a few monkey noises are also present. This cover incorporates a rap song describing [[King K. Rool]], one of the game's new fighters. 

The game also includes an arrangement of "Snakey Chantey" arranged by [[Kumi Tanioka]]. It has an orchestra march-like feel and incorporates the last sections of "Gang-Plank Galleon." Both of these arrangements can be played on any ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]''- and ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]''-series stage.

=====Lyrics=====
<blockquote><i>
You can do it, whelp<br>
You can claw 'em, gnaw 'em, stone 'em, beat 'em<br>
I'll do this with my mind, you just obey me!<br>
And do you stammer, stammer, seein' my eye?<br>
You better start me, steam me, see me, scrub me, feed me my pie<br>
You ready already, or wheezy oh? And bestial crushin', easy though<br>
And totally the very top DNA, now!<br>
You need a shanty, shanty, shanty: a song<br>
You're an extremely scary regent that conquers us all, you go:<br>
Bananananananananananana<br>
Bananananananananananana<br>
Banananananananananananana<br>
