Lyrics White Star Liner - Public Service Broadcasting

It was time to go
Tide was fast and pulled her great bulk away from the quay
And her own three engines and 55,000 horsepower could take over
A sixth of a mile long
Eleven stories high
She was the largest and most luxurious liner in the world

White Star Liner
White Star Liner
White Star Liner
White Star Liner

After her trials, she left Belfast dock (...)
To her passengers,
She seemed more like a huge floating hotel than a ship

White Star Liner
White Star Liner
White Star Liner
White Star Liner

Then she set off for the open sea and New York
And as she sailed away, her builders had no doubt
That this was the start of a great career (start of a great career)

White Star Liner
White Star Liner
White Star Liner
White Star Liner
