Lyrics
Chorus
He’d fly thro’ the air with the greatest of ease
A daring young man on the flying Trapeze
His movements were graceful, all girls he could please
And my love he purloined away
Chorus
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
Performance
