He thought he'd take a trip to Italy,he thought that he'd go by sea, He jumped off the harbour in New Yory,he swam like a man made of cork, He saw the Lusitania in distress,what he do,he put the Lusitania on his chest, He drank all the water in the sea,then he walked all the way to Italy, He thought he'd take a trip to old Japan,they turned out the whole brass band, He played every instrument they got,like a lad sure he beat the whole lot, Now the old church bells will ring,hells fire,the whole church choir will sing, They all turned out to say farewell to my big brother Sylvest.
