Let me sing you a song, boys, of fire and flame Of a French ammo ship, the Mont-Blanc was her name How the brave Nova Scotia was never the same On the morning when Halifax burned 'Twas in early December 1917 She was packed to the gills with Grade-A TNT They were bound for the fighting in High Germany When towards them the other ship turned The Norwegian ship Imo, some fault in her gears She struck Mont-Blanc's side like the mightiest of spears And the benzol ignited, the captain's worst fears As the fire consumed bow to stern The people gazed on from their safe distant rooms Watched the soot and the smoke fill the sky with their plumes Though within, the ship's cargo would spell all their dooms How were they to know to be concerned? The crew rowed for shore lest they burn or they drown They cried "Save your souls!" as they ran through the town But their warnings were nothing but strange foreign sounds For the townsfolk, no French had they learned One man, Patrick Coleman, in the railway's employ Sent word "Stop the trains, or they'll all be destroyed! This will be my last message, farewell to you boys" For a true hero's death he had earned An explosion colossal when the munitions blew Devastation and debris for miles, fire through The Mont-Blanc was gone and the town with it, too And the waters raged up in return There were heroes and angels all fated to die Over 2000 souls laid to rest by-and-by We will always remember and lift a glass high To the morning when Halifax burned
