In 18 hundred and 59 the engineer Brunel Would build the greatest ship afloat And rule the ocean's swell Nineteen-thousand tons of steel They used to shape the mighty keel Forged inside the smelter Where they made the gates of Hell And the name upon the contract Isambard Brunel As day-by-day the monster grew The engineer Brunel Would watch the devil's handiwork And woe betide a man who shirks Or slows the pace to build the keel Nineteen-thousand tons of steel Anyone with eyes to see Is but a bride of Hell And the name upon the draftsman's chart Isambard Brunel A riveter was on the hull With his apprentice lad He'd served his time with the older man Some say it was his dad Two hundred men upon the shift But when the day is done The count is hundred ninety-eight Before the setting sun They searched the yard all through the night Until the morning bell No more delays are countenanced By Isambard Brunel And so they work a double shift To make the time in full No mention of the missing men They seal the double hull The ship was launched upon the tide And all the townsfolk cheered A brass band played but not a word Of omens they had feared But before the afternoon was out The celebration wrecked A dignitary clutched his heart And collapsed upon the deck No doctors could revive him
