Never Stopped Playing 11-16-03

There should be a plaque
There should be a plaque to those musicians GDit
you know what I'm talkin about
there should be a bronze GD plaque with their names & what instruments they played
There should be a plaque GDit

There should be a plaque with their names on it:
the Titanic House Band, the Titanic House Band

and when you hear about these wimpy GD musicians who're complainin' about their due in life
just take 'em by the hand
just take 'em by the hand and walk 'em over to that plaque GDit
take 'em by the hand and walk 'em over to that plaque for the Titanic House Band
they went down with the ship
they didn't miss a note, not one note

they didn't miss a note
they didn't miss a note, oh no.

They kept playing, they kept playing,they kept playing
the water crept up to their ankles
they kept playing, they kept playing,they kept playing,
to their shins, they kept playing, they kept playing,
kneecaps, they kept playing, they kept playing,

and as the little rowboats went out to sea with the few lifeboat survivors
they could hear the music on that ship
water rose to their navels
they just raised their instruments up a little higher
and kept playing

they kept playing, they kept playing, they kept playing,
because that song wasn't over yet
it wasn't over yet, it wasn't over yet, it wasn't over yet
they kept playing, they kept playing

and now today as we look at that plaque
that bronze plaque to the Titanic House Band
if you listen very carefully in the South Wind
if you listen with all your might
you can still hear it
you can still hear it

they never stopped playing
they never stopped playing
they never stopped playing
they never stopped playing
even tonight, even this night so many years later
carried on the wisp o' the wind
their song continues on
on the wind o' the wind, the wisp o' the wind
the wisp o' the wind
you can hear them tonight
