The Anne Alexander (1 of only 4 known such ships) is sunk by a whale on 8/20/1857. I don't actually have a song about a whale sinking a ship, but we all know one about a whale sinking a boat:
We stuck the whale the line paid out,
But she gave a flourish with her tail,
The boat capsized and and we lost four gallant men,
And we never caught that whale, brave boys,
And we never caught that whale.
