The Longest Johns – Pride of the White Star Line Lyrics
Artist: The Longest Johns
Song: Pride of the White Star Line
In the Belfast yard where she was made of Harland-Wolff design
The plan was struck to build three ships that funds would not define
The gantry raised up in ’08, a nameless liner rose
To make the journey to New York in record time, and so
(Chorus)
She’s the pride of the White Star Line
May her engines never stall
Her sisters died from ‘berg and mine
But she’ll run for decades more
She’ll run for decades more
Olympic soon became her stamp, no finer ship did sail
Smoking rooms and Turkish baths and palm trees rail to rail
As sleek and striking as could be, and speed second to none
She sailed from Portsmouth dock and showed the world how it was done
(Chorus)
She’s the pride of the White Star Line
May her engines never stall
Her sisters died from ‘berg and mine
But she’ll run for decades more
She’ll run for decades more
