The Sinking of the Reuben James - Pete Seeger
Have you heard of a ship
Called the good Reuben James
Manned by hard fighting men
Both of honor and fame
She flew the Stars and Stripes
Of the land of the free
But tonight she's in her grave
At the bottom of the sea
Tell me what were their names
Tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend
On the good Reuben James
What were their names
Tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend
On the good Reuben James
One hundred men were drown
In that dark watery grave
When that good ship went down
Only forty-four were saved
'Twas the last day of October
We saved the forty-four
From the cold icy waters
And the cold icy shore
Tell me what were their names
Tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend
On the good Reuben James
What were their names
Tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend
On the good Reuben James
It was there in the dark
Of that uncertain night
That we watched for the U boats
And waited for a fight
Then a whine and a rock
And a great explosion roared
And they laid the Reuben James
On that cold ocean floor
Tell me what were their names
Tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend
On the good Reuben James
What were their names
Tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend
On the good Reuben James
Now tonight there are lights
In our country so bright
In the farms and in the cities
They're telling of the fight
And now our mighty battleships
Will steam the bounding main
And remember the name
Of that good Reuben James
Tell me what were their names
Tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend
On the good Reuben James
What were their names
Tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend
On the good Reuben James
