[Note 603.1]

 [603Notation]

A big ship left port on its first Maiden voyage,
The world gazed in wonder and pride,
Old England was proud of the ship and its crew,
Whose captain was trusted and tried,
The ship was a city of splendour and light,
Its rich and its poor side by side,
But when the shock came and the vessel went down.
Rich man and poor man like English men died

Chorus: On the ship that will never return,
                The ship that will never return,
                Brave words were spoken, and brave hearts were broken
                Ah! Here's where true love you discern
                Mothers they sobb'd in pray'r
                As they parted from lov'd ones there
                Husbands and sons, brave hearted ones
                On the ship that will never return,

Titanic its name and Titanic its size,
O'er the waves of the ocean she rode,
Four days had gone by since she'd left the old land,
With over two thousand abroad
And then came the crash in the dead of the night,
But none on that ship were dismayed,
They trusted the they trusted the crew,
And even the women they were not afraid -

Be British, the captain cried out from the bridge,
Be British - and British were they,
The women_and_children_the_firstĀ¹ for the boats -
And the sailor's knew how to obey;
As long as old England sends ships over sea
The deeds of that night she'll recall
When rich man and poor man went down side by side
Where Rank made no difference for Death levelled all
