Burl Ives - The Man On The Flying Trapeze lyrics

Burl Ives - The man on the flying trapeze

He floats through the air

With the greatest of ease.

The daring young man on the flying trapeze.

His movements are graceful

All the girls he does please

And my love he has stolen away.

Oh, the girl that I loved she was handsome.

And I tried everything her to please.

But I could not please her one half as much as the man on the flying trapeze...oh-h-h-h-

He floats through the air (continued)
