@3Chorus@1 God moves on the water, God moves on the water, God moves on the water, And the people had to run and pray. In the year nineteen and twelve, On-a April the thirteenth day, When the great @3Titanic@1 was sinkin' down, Well, the peoples had to run and pray. When the lifeboat got to the landin', The womens turned around Cryin', "Look, 'way cross that ocean, Lawdy, At my husband drown." Cap'n Smith was a-lyin' down, Was asleep for he was tired; Well, he woke up in a great fright, As many gunshots were fired. Well, that Jacob Nash was a millionaire, Lawd, he had plenty of money to spare; When the great @3Titanic@1 was sinkin' down, Well, he could not pay his fare. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A JOYFUL SONG OF FIVE by KATHERINE MANSFIELD A NEW HYMN by KATHERINE MANSFIELD SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: MRS.
