The Lyrics
Well, they gave him his orders at Queenstown, in Ireland,
saying “Ed, you are way behind the time –
this is not Mauretania, this is bold, new Titanic
you must win Blue Riband to White Star Line”
Then he turned around and said his boss, J. Bruce Ismay
“I’ll have shoveled on a little more coal
When we cross that wide North Atlantic
you can see our bold Titanic roll”
It’s a mighty long route from Queenstown to New York
it was Great Circle Route she was on
there was iceberg hazard at Northern Atlantic
and a warning had already come
She was steaming in the night making twenty miles an hour
when her lookout yelled “Iceberg ahead!”
it was on that berg that she collided her starboard:
see what a breach it made!
And an SOS was sent calling all ships around her
and this is how it read:
“Oh our brave ship is doomed, we are sinking, going under”
That night claimed thousand five hundred dead
So all you ship owners, you’d better take this warning
from this time now on and learn
Never hassle with the work of commanding ship’s master
Risk is too big you’ll never return!
