Lyrics:
I am she who’s never lied
Whose skill so often has been tried
These are the truths made known to me
Shipton’s words should comfort thee

Carriage without horse shall go
Disaster fill the world with woe
Around the world men’s thoughts shall fly
In the twinkling of an eye
Iron in water gayly float
As easily as wooden boat
Through hills and mountains men shall ride
No horse be riding at their side

CHORUS
I am she who’s never lied
Whose skill so often has been tried
These are the truths made known to me
Shipton’s words should comfort thee

Under water men shall walk
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall even talk
In the air men shall be seen
In white, in black, and even green
The world to an end shall come
In eighteen hundred eighty-one
Unhappy they who see these days
But death shall comfort, Shipton says.

CHORUS (2X)
