Flash Company

Flash Company - Bellowhead

Written by：trad./arr. Bellowhead

Oh the jigging and all the dancing

It was all my delight

And staying out late my boys

Been the ruin of me quite

Staying out late my boys like a great many more

If it hadn't been for flash company

I should never have been so poor

Once I had a colour

As red as any rose

But now I'm as pale as the lilly that grows

As the lily in the garden my beauty's all gone

If it hadn't been for flash company

I should never have been so poor

So take this

Yellow handkerchief in remembrance of me

Tie it safely round your neck

When in flash company

Flash company's been the ruin

Of a great many more

If it hadn't been for flash company

I should never have been so poor

If it hadn't been for flash company

I should never have been

So poor
