Yes, but isn't there also one about "Waitin' by the levee for the Robert E Lee" ? I'll go look it up. Sure there is: Way down on the levee in old Alabamy, There's daddy and mammy, there's Ephr'am and Sammy, On a moonlight night you can find them all, While they are waitin' the banjos are syncopa-tin' What's that they're sayin?, what's that they're sayin;? While they keep playin' hummin' and swayin', It's the good ship Robert E. Lee, That come to carry the cotton away.
Watch them shufflin' along, see them shufflin' along, Go take your best gal, real pal; go down to the levee, I said to the levee, and you'll join that shufflin' throng, Hear that music and song, It's simply great, mate, waitin' on the levee, Waitin' for the Robert E. Lee.
The whistles are blowin', the smokestacks are showin', The ropes they are throwin', excuse me, I'm goin', To the place where all is harmonious, Even the preacher, he is the dancing teacher. Have you been down there? Were you around there? If you ever go there, you'll always be found there, Why do-gone, here comes my baby, On the good old Robert E. Lee.
Watch them shufflin' along, see them shufflin' along, Go take your best gal, real pal; go down to the levee, I said to the levee, and you'll join that shufflin' throng, Hear that music and song, It's simply great, mate, waitin' on the levee, Waitin' for the Robert E. Lee.-- http://www.rmstitanichistory.com/titanic/music/relee.html and many others waitin' by, waitin' on, whatever.
