19 scarlet roses that chaplain spread around
in the waters of burrard inlet of old vancouver town
but the bridge came tumbling down
and the bridge came tumbling down
then 19 men were drowned
in june of 1958 in old vancouver town

there were 79 men working
to build this brand new bridge
to span the second narrows
and connect up with the ridge
till a big wind hit the bridge
and the bridge came tumbling down
and 19 men were drowned
the medical corps couldn’t be too sure of the rest of the men they found

in among the twisted girders one man realized
how last night he’d been dreaming and saw before his eyes
the big wind on the rise
and the bridge came tumbling down
and 19 steel men drowned, and he saw the fright of the darkest night
in old vancouver town

with frogmen in the water and the cutting torches glow
they fought to save the steel men
from certain death below and pain we’ll never know
for the bridge came tumbling down
and 19 men were drowned, and sixty more that came ash0r-
so thankful they were found

it often makes me wonder
in strength who has the edge
the longest steel beam structure
that spans the highest ridge
or the men that built the bridge
and the bridge came tumbling down
and 19 men were drowned
and the other men came back again
to lay the new beams down

now if you’re ever crossing
this mighty bridge sublime
and 19 scarlet roses may p-ss before your mind
remember and be kind
for the bridge came tumbling down
and 19 men were drowned
so you could ride to the other side
of old vancouver town
so you could ride to the other side
of old vancouver town
