-5 -5 -8 -8 -8 8 -8 -8 -7 6 -7
Oh once I was hap-py, but now I’m for-lorn
-5 -5 -7 -7 -7
Just like an old coat
-8 -7 -7 7 -4 -5
that is tat-tered and torn;
-5 -8 -8 -8 8 -8 -8 -7 6 -7
Left in this wide world to fret and to mourn,
7 7 -6* -6* 7 -7 -8 -7 7
Be-trayed by a maid in her teens.

6 -6* 7 -7 7 -6* 7 -6* 6 -8
Now this girl that I loved she was hand-some;
6 -6* 7 -7 7 -6* 7 -6* 6
And I tried all I knew her to please
6 -6* 7 -7 7 -6* 7
But I nev-er could please her
-6* 6 -8 -8 -8
one quar-ter so well
-8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8
As the man on the fly-ing trap-eze.

-9(glis) -5 -5 -8 -8 -8
Oh He’d float through the air
8 -8 -8 -7 6 -7
with the great-est of ease,
-5 -5 -7 -7 -7 -8 -7 -7 7 -4 -5
This dar-ing young man on the fly-ing trap-eze.
-5 -5 -8 -8 -8 8
His move-ments are grace-ful,
-8 -8 -7 6 -7
all girls he does please
7 7 -6* -6* 7 -7 -8 -7 7
And my love he has pur-loined a-way.

This young man by name was Signor Bona Slang,
Tall, big and handsome, as well made as Chang.
Where’er he appeared the hall loudly rang
With ovation from all people there.

He’d smile from the bar on the people below
And one night he smiled on my love.
She wink’d back at him and she shouted “Bravo,”
As he hung by his nose up above.

Her father and mother were both on my side
And very hard tried to make her my bride;
Her father he sighed, and her mother she cried,
To see her throw herself away.

‘Twas all no avail, she went there every night,
And would throw him bouquets on the stage,
Which caused him to meet her; how he ran me down,
To tell you would take a whole page.

One night I as usual went to her dear home,
Found there her father and mother alone.
I asked for my love, and soon they made known,
To my horror that she’d run away.

She’d packed up her box and eloped in the night
With him, with the greatest of ease;
From two stories high he had lowered her down
To the ground on his flying trapeze@e.

Some months after this I went to the Hall;
Was greatly surprised to see on the wall
A bill in red letters, which did my heart gall,
That she was appearing with him.

He’d taught her gymnastics and dressed her in tights,
To help him live at his ease,
And made her a*sume a masculine name,
And now she goes on the trapeze.

She’d fly through the air with the greatest of ease,
You’d think her the man young man on the flying trapeze.
Her movements were graceful, all girls she could please,
And that was the end of my love.

*****

ALTERNATE VERSION:

Once I was happy, but now I’m forlorn,
Like an old coat that is tattered and torn;
Left in this wide world o weep and to mourn,
Betrayed by a maid in her teens.

Now this girl that I loved, she was handsome,
And I tried all I knew, her to please,
But I never could please her one quarter so well
As the man on the flying trapeze.

Oh, he floats through the air with the greatest of ease,
This daring young man on the flying trapeze;
His actions are graceful, all girls he does please,
My love he has purloined away.

He’d play with a miss like a cat with a mouse,
His eyes would undress every girl in the house.
Perhaps he is better described as a louse,
But the people they came just the same.

Oh, he’d smile from his perch on the people below
And one day he smiled on my love.
She blew him a kiss and she hollered, “Bravo!”
As he hung by his nose up above.

Oh, he floats through the air with the greatest of ease,
This daring young man on the flying trapeze;
His actions are graceful, all girls he does please,
My love he has purloined away.

Oh, I wept and I whimpered, I simpered for weeks,
While she spent her time with the circus’s freaks.
The tears were like hailstones that rolled down my cheeks,
Alas, and alack, and alacka!

I went to this fellow, the blackguard, and said,
“I’ll see that you get your desserts!”
He put up his thumb to his nose with a sneer,
He sneered once again, and said, “Nertz!”

Oh, he floats through the air with the greatest of ease,
This daring young man on the flying trapeze;
His actions are graceful, all girls he does please,
My love he has purloined away.

One night to his tent he invited her in,
He filled her with compliments, kisses, and gin
And started her out on the road to ruin,
Since then l have known no repose.

But e’en now l loved her, I said, “Take my name!
I’ll gladly forgive and forget;”
She rustled her bustle without any shame,
Saying, “Well, maybe later, not yet.”

Oh, he floats through the air with the greatest of ease,
This daring young man on the flying trapeze;
His actions are graceful, all girls he does please,
My love he has purloined away.

One night as usual I went to her home,
And found there her father and mother alone,
I asked for my love and it soon was made known,
To my horror, that she’d run away.

Without any trousseau she’d fled in the night
With him with the greatest of ease,
From two stories high he’d lowered her down
To the ground on his flying trapeze.

Oh, he floats through the air with the greatest of ease,
This daring young man on the flying trapeze;
His actions are graceful, all girls he does please,
My love he has purloined away.

Some months after that I went into a hall,
And to my surprise,I found there on the wall,
A bill in red letters which did my heart gall,
That she was appearing with him.

Oh, he’d taught her gymnastics, and dressed her in tights,
To help him to live at his ease,
He’d made her take on a masculine name,
And now she goes on the trapeze.

Oh, she floats through the air with the greatest of ease,
You’d think her a man on the flying trapeze,
She does all the work while he takes his ease,
And that’s what’s become of my love.
