The Lyrics
Men, you know the ship is sinking
The hull has started leaking, we're going down for sure
And this is the end, you know I hate to say it
It was my job to bring the ship in safe,
secure, complete our tour
And fellows, I'll understand if you blame me
Maybe if I'd waited
Maybe if I'd hesitated
The worst would not have happened to us
Most of you are married, most of you have kids
You're thinking of them now
A time like this, I know that it's scary
You've known all along the risks and perils of a life at sea
My fellows, I'll take all the blame on me
If I'd been more careful
Maybe if I'd read the forecast
The worst would not be happening, right now
Men, there is no cause for shame now
You have all done your jobs quite well
The best crew I've ever worked with
You'll never see your homes again, your wives, your children
And sailors, if you believe God hears your pleas
It's time to start praying
Lord, God, we are praying to You
Won't you deliver us now from the sea
Oh, Lord, we'll never reach Cleveland
The ore will never be delivered, oh no, no
Seems all the worst things have happened
The worst things have happened
Oh Lord, it's the worst that could happen
