The Titanic

THE TITANIC

All The old folks say the fourth of May was a hell of a day, I was in a little seaport town and the great Titanic was goin' down

Now the sergeant and the captain was havin' some words, when they hit that big iceberg.

Up come Shine from down below, He said, "Captain, Captain," say, "you don't know," say, "we got nine feet of water over the boiler-room floor."

And the Captain said, "Go on back and start stackin' sacks, we got nine water pumps to keep the water back."

Up come Shine from down below, He said, "Captain, captain," say, "you don't know," say, "we got forty feet of water over the boiler-room floor."

And the Captain said, "Go on back and start stackin' sacks, we got nine water pumps to keep the water back."

Shine said, "Your shittin' is good and your shittin' is fine," say "but there's one time you white folks ain't gonna shit on Shine."

Now a thousand millionaires was lookin' at him, when he jumped in the ocean and begin to swim.

Rich man's daughter came up on deck, with her drawers around her knees and underskirt around her neck.

Like a noonday clock Shine stopped and his eyes fell dead on that cock.

She says, "Shine, oh, Shine," says "save me please," say, "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 a pussy as you."

She said, Shine, oh, Shine," say, "please save my life," say, "I'll make you a lawfully wedded wife."

He said, "Your shittin' is good and your shittin' is fine, but first I got to save this black ass of mine."

Now was another fella by the name of Jim, he jumped in the ocean and he begin to swim.

Another girl ran up on deck with her drawers around her knees and underskirt around her neck.

Like a noonday clock Jim stopped and his eyes fell dead on that cock.

Now she had long black hair that hung from the crown of her head to the nape of her belly, she had a twenty-pound pussy that shook like jelly.

Say, "Shine, oh, Shine," says, "save me please, I'll give you everything that your eyes may see."

And before the last word could fall from her lip, Jim climbed his black ass back up on that ship.

Up come a shark from the bottom of the sea, Said, "Look what god almighty done sent to me."

Shine bowed his neck and showed his ass, "Get out the way, let a big shark pass."

And after old shark seen that Shine had him beat, he said, "Swim black motherfucker, 'cause I don't like black meat."

About four-thirty when the Titanic was sinkin', Shine done swimmed on over in Los Angeles and started drinkin'

But now when he heard the Titanic had sunk he was in New York damn near drunk.

He said, "Ladies and gentlemen," say, "when I die don't ya'll bury me at all, soak my balls in alcohol and lay my old rod up across my breast, and tell all the people old Shine has gone to rest."
