Titanic Songtext
von Bruce Jackson

All the old folks say the 4th of May is a hell of a day
I was in a little seaport town and the great Titanic was going down
Now the sergeant and captain was having
Some words when they hit that big iceberg
Up comes Shine from down below, he said
"Captain, captain, so you don′t know
So we got nine feet of water over the ballroom floor"
And the captain said, "Go on back and start stacking sacks
We got nine water pumps to keep the water back"

Up comes Shine from down below, he said
"Captain, captain, so you don't know
So we got forty feet of water over the ballroom floor"
He said, "Go on back and start stacking sacks
We got nine water pumps to keep the water back"
Shine said, "Your shit is good and your shit is fast
But there′s one time you white folks ain't gonna shit over Shine"


And a thousand millionaires was looking at him
When he jumped in the ocean and he began to swim
A rich man's daughter came up on deck
With her drawers around her knees and her skirt around her neck
And like a noonday clock Shine stopped
And his eyes fell dead in that cock
She said, "Shine, oh Shine, save me please
I′ll give you all the pussy that your eyes may see"

He said, "I know you got good pussy and that′s true
But there's some girls on land got good pussy as you"
She said, "Shine, oh Shine, please save my life
I′ll make you a lovely wedding wife"

He said, "Your shit is good and your shit is fast
But first I got to see this black ass of mine"

Now there was another fella by the name of Jim
He jumped in the ocean and he began to swim
Another girl ran up on deck with her drawers around her knees
And her skirt around her neck
And like a noonday clock Jim stopped
And his eyes fell dead in that cock

Now she had long black hair that hanged from the crown of her head
To the navel of her belly
She had a twenty pound pussy that shook like jelly
She said, "Shine, oh Shine, save me please

I'll give you everything that your eyes may see"
And before the last word could fall from her lip
Jim clammed his black ass back up on that ship


Up come a shark from the bottom of the sea
Said, "Lord, what got a matter done sent to me"
Shine bowed his neck and showed his ass
To get out the way little big shark passed
And after old shark seen that Shine had him beat
He said, "Swim, black motherfucker, don′t let black bleed"

About 4:30 when the Titanic was sinking
Shine had swum on over to Los Angeles and started drinking
But now when he heard that the Titanic had sunk
He was in New York now and there drunk
He said, "Ladies and gentlemen, so when I die
So don't y′all bury me at all
So soak my balls in alcohol
So lay my rod up across my breast
Until all the peoples on Shine is gone to rest"
