Titanic

Oh they built that ship Titanic to sail the ocean blue

They said "Lord we have a ship, that the water won't break through"

But the Lords almighty hand, said the ship would never stand

It was sad when the great ship went down

Chorus:

Oh, it was sad (so sad), Oh, it was sad (so sad)

It was sad when the great ship went down

To the bottom of the sea, husbands and wives, little children lost their lives

It was sad when the great ship went down

Many miles from English shore and the ship would go no more

And the rich refused to associate with the poor

So they stuck them down below where they'd be the first to go

It was sad when the great ship went down

It was early in the morning about two o'clock

When the great ship Titanic, began to roll and rock

Oh the people knelt and cried, they said "Lord we're gonna die"

It was sad when the great ship went down

They lowered the lifeboats in the dark and stormy see

As the band struck up a tune Near to God oh Thee

Oh the heroes saved the weak as the ship began to leak

It was sad when the great ship went down

Mrs. Astor turned around just to see her husband drowned

As the Great Ship Titanic made a gurgling sound

Oh, she wrapped herself in mink just to watch the old man sink

It was sad when the great ship went down

The captain stood on deck with a teardrop in his eye

As he watched the last lifeboat be lowered over the side

Oh he thought he made a slip, so he went down with the ship

It was sad when the great ship went down

They built another ship and they called her Mary Lou

Her bow was painted black and the stern was painted blue

They christened her with rootbeer and she sank right off the pier

It was great when the sad ship went down

Oh the moral of this story, as you can plainly see

Is never leave the land and go out into the sea

But even if you do, take your PFD with you

It was sad when the great ship went down
