Was in nineteen hundred and twenty nine (Run, come see) (run, come see) I remember that day pretty well Nineteen hundred and twenty nine, run, come see Jerusalem My God, they were talkin' 'bout a storm on the island Rrun, come see) (run, come see) My God, what a beautiful morning Talkin' 'bout a storm on the island, run, come see Jerusalem My God, there were three ships leavin' out the harbor (Run, come see) (run, come see) The Ethel and the Myrtle and the Pretoria Three ships leavin' out the harbor, run, come see Jerusalem My God, well, the Ethel was bound for Stannard Creek (Run, come see) (run, come see) My God, what a beautiful morning The Ethel was bound for Stannard Creek, run, come see Jerusalem My God, well, the Myrtle was bound for the Fresh Creek (Run, come see) (run, come see) Mothers and children on board The Myrtle was bound for the Fresh Creek, run, come see Jerusalem My God, well, the Pretoria was out on the ocean (Run, come see) (run, come see) Swinging from side to side with the waves The Pretoria was out on the ocean, run, come see Jerusalem My God, then a great sea built up in the northwest (Run, come see) (run, come see) My God, what a beautiful morning A great sea built up in the northwest, run, come see Jerusalem My God, well, the first sea hit the Pretoria (Run, come see) (run, come see) Mothers screamed with children on board The first sea hit the Pretoria, run, come see Jerusalem My God, well, it sank the boat down to the bottom (Run, come see) (run, come see) Mothers screamed with children on board Sank the boat down to the bottom, run, come see Jerusalem My God, there were thirty-three souls on the water (Run, come see) (run, come see) Singing and praying to the Daniel God Thirty-three souls on the water, run, come see Jerusalem My God, now George Brown, he was the captain (Run, come see) (run, come see) He said, "My children, come pray," George Brown, he was the captain, run, come see Jerusalem He said, "Now come now, witness your judgement," (Run, come see) (run, come see) He said, "My children, come pray," "Come now, witness your judgement," run, come see Jerusalem..
