Oh the jiggin' 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 have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
Oh once I had the colour, as red as any rose
But now I'm as pale as the lily that grows
As the lily in the garden, my beauty's all gone
If it hadn't have 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 have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
If it hadn't have been for flash company
I should never have been so poor
