I think the song you're thinking of is "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald"
by Gordon Lightfoot. Some others are "White Squall", "The Wreck of the
Athens Queen", Last Watch" and "The Mary Ellen Carter", all by Stan Rogers.

"Christian Island" by Gordon Lightfoot
"Marie Christine" by Gordon Lightfoot (and the Tannahill Weavers)
"Ladies of the Line" by Tom Chapin
"The Good Ship Venus (Friggin' in the Riggin')" by Oscar Brand (and many
others)
Valerie L. Magee
some of Lightfoot's other songs about ships. He writes about them often; ships,
trains and planes are recurring themes in his songs (along with love, the
outdoors and Canada). Here are some of the other "ships" songs:
Ballad Of Yarmouth Castle (another true shipwreck song, written about a
shipwreck 10 years before the EF)
Marie Christine (a shipwreck song, but not a true story)
Ghosts Of Cape Horn (this was written for a documentary)
Triangle (about the Bermuda Triangle - lots of humor in this one)
I have the lyrics to all the songs at my web site at http://gordonlightfoot.com
, and clips for most of them. Enjoy! (If you want more, I'll dig up my full list
- this is just a sampling).

Try "I'm Your Captain" by Grand Funk.

Oops! Yeah... The part Carolyn quotes is sort of a bridge, right?
I just put it in the wrong tune I guess.
Shame you didn't post first to have saved me the embarrassment. :-p

The ship sinking song was "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon
Lightfoot (it was a true story too).
mayday
........and don't forget the "Sloop John B".......by the Beach Boys.
