[00:04.886] There is a flash packet, flash packet of fame,
[00:09.750] She hails from New York and the Dreadnought's her name,
[00:14.393] She's bound to the westward where stormy winds blow,
[00:20.159] Bound away in the Dreadnought, to the westward we'll go.
[00:24.808] Derry down, down, down derry down.
[00:29.986]
[00:34.426] Now, the Dreadnought she lies in the river Mercey,
[00:38.773] Awaiting the tugboat to take her to sea,
[00:43.391] Out around the Rock Light where the salt tides do flow,
[00:49.069] Bound away to the westward, in the Dreadnought we'll go.
[00:53.755] Derry down, down, down derry down.
[00:58.978]
[01:03.280] Now, the Dreadnought's a-howlin' down the wild Irish Sea,
[01:07.585] Her passengers merry, with hearts full of glee,
[01:12.316] As sailors like lions walk the decks to and fro,
[01:17.824] She's the Liverpool packet, O Lord, let her go!
[01:22.612] Derry down, down, down derry down.
[01:27.510]
[01:32.061] Now, the Dreadnought's a-sailin' the Atlantic so wide,
[01:36.529] Where the high roaring seas roll along her black sides,
[01:41.190] With her sails tightly set for the Red Cross to show,
[01:46.194] She's the Liverpool packet, O Lord, let her go!
[01:50.671] Derry down, down, down derry down.
[01:55.501]
[01:59.978] Now, a health to the Dreadnought, and all her brave crew,
[02:04.490] To bold Captain Samuel, his officers, too,
[02:08.970] Talk about your flash packets, Swallowtail and Black Ball,
[02:14.399] The Dreadnaught's the flier that outsails them all.
[02:19.154] Derry down, down, down derry down.
[02:24.408]
