The ship was doomed from the beginning
With gashes slit down her side..
Icebergs had torn through her steel frame
Women and children cried...

Oh!..What a night to remember
Wails echoing with a death chant melody
Life boats filling haphazardly
The band playin "Nearer my God To Thee"

As I sat and I watched the mighty vessel go down
Waters swallowing what was left of the Titanic
I will never forget the horror that night
On the ocean we call the Atlantic...
