Henry Burr (January 15, 1882 -- April 6, 1941) was a Canadian singer of popular songs from the early 20th century, an early radio performer and producer. He was born Harry Haley McClaskey and used Henry Burr as one of his many pseudonyms, in addition to Irving Gillette, Henry Gillette, Alfred Alexander, Robert Rice, Carl Ely, Harry Barr, Frank Knapp, Al King, and Shamus McClaskey. He was one of the first singers to make popular acoustic recordings and one of the most prolific recording artists of all time, with more than 12,000 recordings by his own estimate.[3] A tenor, he performed as a soloist and also in duets, trios and quartets. His most famous collaboration was the Peerless Quartet.
The Chesapeake Bay is the largest estuary in the United States. It lies off the Atlantic Ocean, surrounded by Maryland and Virginia. The Chesapeake Bay's drainage basin covers 64,299 square miles (166,534 km2) in the District of Columbia and parts of six states: New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia. More than 150 rivers and streams drain into the Bay, and it comprises 64,000 square miles of bays, marshes and rivers.
Lyrics: 'Round the bend I see the steam -er com -in', dear, Head -in' here, To this pier;
If you hur -ry we will make it, nev -er fear, On the old Do -min -ion Line.
Aint she sail -ing pret -ty as she hugs the shore, Steam -in' for Bal -ti -more;
Hear the pad -dles turn -in' Hear the wat -er churn -in' She's the queen of Ches -a -peake Bay!
Come on Nan cy, put your best dress on, Come on Nan -cy 'fore the steam -boat's gone.
Ev -'ry -thing is love -ly on the Ches -a -peake Bay, All a -board for Bal -ti -more and if we're late they'll all be sore,
Now look here Cap -tain, let us catch the boat, We can't swim and lis -ten, we can't float!
Banjos strum-min' a good old tune, Up on deck, is the place to spoon,
Cud -dle up close, be -neath the sil -v'ry moon, Sail -ing down the Ches -a -peake Bay.
