THE TITANTIC
Sailing out on the Titantic,
Some ninety miles from shore,
When suddenly it struck an iceberg,
And sank to rise no more.
CHORUS:
Lost on the great Titantic
Sinking to rise no more;
The number, sixteen hundred
That failed to reach the shore.
There were paupers, merchants, and rich men
Sailing out on this boat;
And when it sank in the ocean
You could see their bodies float.
The men stood back like heroes,
Sending their wives to the shore;
They kissed, shook hands, and parted,
To meet on earth no more.
The band was playing sadly,
"Nearer, My God, To Thee;"
It seemed to play its utmost
As it sank in the deep blue sea.
