The Man on the flying Trapeze - Don Redman & His Orchestra[00:00:00]
Now once I was happy but now I'm forlorn[00:00:43]
Like an old coat that is tattered and torn[00:00:47]
Left in this wide world to fret and to mourn[00:00:50]
Betrayed by a maid in her teens[00:00:53]
Now the man that I loved she was handsome[00:00:57]
And I tried all I knew her to please[00:01:00]
Then but I never could not please her one quarter so well[00:01:04]
As the man upon the trapeze[00:01:08]
Oh[00:01:11]
I stay some months after that I went in to the hall[00:01:26]
And to my surprised I find them on the wall[00:01:30]
A bill in red letters which did my heart gall[00:01:33]
That she was appearing with him[00:01:37]
He'd taught her gymnastics and dressed her in tights[00:01:40]
Just to help him live at his ease[00:01:44]
And he made her assume a masculine name[00:01:47]
And now she goes on the trapeze[00:01:52]
Oh ya ya ya ya[00:01:54]
He'd fly through the air with the greatest of ease[00:01:57]
This daring young man on the flying trapeze[00:02:00]
I mean the movements were graceful all the girls he could please[00:02:04]
And my love he purloined away[00:02:08]
