The Reuben James
View ArtistLyrics
Have you heard of a ship called the good Reuben James Manned by hard fighting men both of honor and of fame She flew the Stars and Stripes of the land of the free But tonight she's in her grave on 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? It was there in the dark of that uncertain night We watched for the U-Boats and waited for the fight Then a whine and a rock and a great explosion roar Then they laid the Reuben James on the 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 are tellin' of the fight Once more our mighty battleships will steam the boundin' main And remember the name of the 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?
