ROCK DAT SHIP IN DE MORNING Copyright, 1880, by T. B. Harms& Co. Written and Sung by Wm. J. Scanlan. 
When Gabriel died he made a will, he made a will, he made a will, When Gabriel died he made a will, and Gabriel he did say: When Gabriel died he made a will, he made a will, he made a will. When Gabriel died he made a will, and Gabriel he did say: 
Chorus. Children, rock dat ship in de mornin', and rock dat ship at night, Rock dat ship de whole day long, be sure you rock it right; Rock dat ship in de mornin', and rock dat ship at night, Rock dat ship de whole day long, be sure you rock it right. Lottie Lee, come sit by me, a tale of love we'll tell. Beneath the bright moonbeam, my love, a place we remember so well; For there'll be no sorrow there, there'll be no sorrow then-, In heaven above where all is love, there'll be no sorrow there. 
Get a balloon, to heaven we'll go, to heaven we'll go, to heaven we'll go, Oh, get a balloon, to heaven we'll go, with Gabriel we'll remain; Oh, get a balloon, to heaven we'll go, to heaven we'll go, to heaven we'll go. Oh, get a balloon, to heaven we'll go, with Gabriel we'll remain.-Chorus.
