What's a song that mentions a true story in history, or a real person?

A great one. We used to sing it when driving "up north" to the grandparent's cabin on a small lake not far from Lake Superior. "Does any one know where the love of God goes / When the waves turn the minutes to hours?"

That immediately came to my mind as well. When it first came out I initially thought it was about a historic shipwreck not a current event. Amazing song then and now.

True. I forgot that the event only happened several months before Gordon Lightfoot recorded the song. The Edmund Fitzgerald sank in November 1975, and the song was released in 1976...
