lirik lagu wreck of the shenandoah – vernon dalhart

[verse 1: vernon dalhart]
at 4 o’clock one evening
of a warm september day
a great and mighty airship
from lakehurst flew away

[verse 2: vernon dalhart]
the mighty shenandoah
the pride of all this land
a crew above the bravest
captain lansdowne in command

[verse 3: vernon dalhart]
at 4 o’clock next morning
the earth was far below
when a storm in all its fury
gave her a fatal blow

[verse 4: vernon dalhart]
for hours they bravely struggled
they worked with all their might
but the storm could not be conquered
and the ship gave up the fight

[verse 5: vernon dalhart]
her sides were torn asunder
her cabin was torn down
the captain and his brave men
crashed into the ground

[verse 6: vernon dalhart]
and fourteen lives were taken
but they’d not died in vain
their names will live forever
within the hall of fame

[verse 7: vernon dalhart]
in the little town of greenville
a mother’s watchful eye
was waiting for the airship
to see her son go by

[verse 8: vernon dalhart]
but alas, her boy lay sleeping
his last great flight was o’er
he’s gone to meet his maker
his ship will fly no more

[verse 9: vernon dalhart]
a loving wife and children
a mother’s broken heart
they’re mourning for their loved one
since the storm tore them apart

[verse 10: vernon dalhart]
but their faith will not be shaken
they’ll see him by and by
they know he waits in heaven
where the brave go when they die

- vernon dalhart
