Lyrics
Once I loved Thomas and then I loved John
Then I loved William, he's a clever young man
With his white cotton stockings and his low ankle shoes
And he wears a blue jacket wherever he goes
So it's tie a yellow handkerchief in remembrance of me
Wear it 'round your neck, my love, in flash company
Flash company, me boys, like so many more
If it hadn't have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
Fiddlin' and dancin', they were all my delight
Keepin' flash company, it has ruined me quite
It has ruined me quite, me boys, like a great many more
If it hadn't have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
So it's tie a yellow handkerchief in remembrance of me
Wear it 'round your neck, my love, in flash company
Flash company, me boys, like so many more
If it hadn't have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
Fiddlin' and dancin', they were all my delight
Keepin' flash company, it has ruined me quite
It has ruined me quite, me boys, like a great many more
If it hadn't have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
So it's tie a yellow handkerchief in remembrance of me
Wear it 'round your neck, my love, in flash company
Flash company, me boys, like so many more
If it hadn't have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
Once I had a colour as red as the rose
Now I'm as pale as the lily that grows
Like a flower in the garden, all me colour is gone
Don't you see what I am come to through lovin' such a one?
So it's tie a yellow handkerchief in remembrance of me
Wear it 'round your neck, my love, in flash company
Flash company, me boys, like a great many more
If it hadn't have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
