"Roll
on, thou deep and dark blue ocean, roll!
Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain;
Man marks the earth with ruin —his control
Stops with the shore."
Childe
Harold’s Pilgrimage, Canto iv. Stanza 179
-Lord Byron
Then
it's Tommy this, an' Tommy
that, an' "Tommy, 'ow's yer soul?"
But it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll -
The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll,
O it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll. |
Excerpt
from Rudyard Kipling poem Tommy

The
Alabama Roll

CSS
ALABAMA
|
When
the
Alabama's keel
was laid,
Roll, Alabama, roll.
It was laid in the yard of Jonathan Laird,
O, roll, Alabama, roll. |
To
Cherbourg port she sailed one day
Roll, Alabama, roll.
To take her count of prize money,
O, roll, Alabama, roll. |
It
was laid in the yard of Jonathan Laird,
Roll, Alabama, roll.
It was laid in the town of Birkenhead,
O, roll, Alabama, roll. |
Many
a sailor he saw his doom,
Roll, Alabama, roll.
When the Kearsage hove in view,
O, roll, Alabama, roll. |
Down
the
Mersey
ways she
rolled then,
Roll, Alabama, roll.
Liverpool fitted her with guns and men,
O, roll, Alabama, roll. |
A
ball from the forward pivot that day, Roll, Alabama, roll.
Shot the Alabama's stern away,
O, roll, Alabama, roll. |
From
the
Western
Isles
she sailed forth,
Roll, Alabama, roll.
To destroy the commerce of the North,
O, roll, Alabama, roll. |
Off
the three mile limit in '64,
Roll, Alabama, roll.
The Alabama sank to the ocean floor, O, roll, Alabama, roll. |
