Jack was a lively one

Not restless, but always had something to do and somewhere to get

He had spent some years in Europe, but now he was done

He and a friend had won tickets to the Titanic in a bet

An unsinkable ship headed to America, the home he had missed for so long

In Italy he'd been a fish out of water

He thought a ticket to Titanic was a ticket home, but he was wrong

Also boarding the ship was a young lady named Rose, and if his eyes hadn't caught her

He'd have gained nothing at all

Because the boat was sunk by an iceberg

Not even a hundred feet tall!
