On the 11th of April 1912 The queen of the ocean had started her life With1300 passangers she sailed out from Cork Lead by 900 sailors on her way to New York
Chorus: Uh-uh-uh, riddle of the century Uh-uh-uh, pride of The White-Star-Line Uh-uh-uh, ye became a wet reliquary Uh-uh-uh, a victim of the brine
On the 14th of Aprli at 11.40 pm An outlook guy named Freedy Fleet the alarmbell he did ring Captain Smith gave the order: "Half steam ahead!" he cried As the steamer got a narrow shave from a giant in the night
(Chorus)
The water filled the liner The death-struggle takes 3 hours The operators working hard an emergency he morsed "Californian can't you hear me - is your wireless working there?" Wallace Hartley and his rag-time-band played a tune called Derry
(chorus)
On the 15th of April 1912 The queen of the ocean had ended her life 18 lifeboats were in store 700 for to save But 1500 passangers rest in their icy grave
