The Titanic



They built the ship Titanic, to sail the ocean blue.
They said it was a ship that water wouldn't go through.
But on its maiden voyage, an iceberg hit the ship.
It was sad when the great ship went down.

Chorus:
Oh it was sad.
It was sad.
It was sad when the great ship went down to the bottom of the sea....
It was sad when the great ship went down.

They were not far from England.
They were not far from shore when the rich refused to associate with the poor.
So they threw the poor below, and they were the first to go.
It was sad when the great ship went down.

Chorus

They threw the lifeboats over in the dark and stormy sea.
And the band began to play "Oh Give Thy Soul To Thee."
Little children wept and cried as they left their mother's side.
It was sad when the great ship when down.

Chorus

Oh the moral of the story, is plain as you can see.
Never trust a sailor on the high sea.
He'll call you honey-darling, and say that he'll be true,
But when the ship goes down he'll say the hell/heck with you.

Chorus

[After last chorus, there is an extra "so sad, too bad" spoken-sung,
and this:

Kerplunk
It sunk
Hunk a junk
In the sea
without me
Luckily
Hee hee hee.
