Lyrics:

Back when I was young and gay

In the fledglin’ of my prime

Back then when I blew through all my time

You met me like a gurglin’ spring

And I a stream nearby

Hardly even noticing it passing

I court the fairest far and wide

I’d walk the hills and ridges

I met them in their parlor rooms a-fancy

I drink and sworp

Sworp and spark in all the towns I ride

And went about a tomcat and a dandy

From Catlettsburg to Bluefield, boys

I’ve seen and had a time

I gave my all and took my pleasures randy

Toe to toe cheek to cheek

And waltz on a switchblade knife

I went about a tomcat and a dandy

When the curtain falls on the part I play

Too soon for the ones that know’d me

Raise a toast and toss me roses from the balc’ny

Let the thorn and flower

And the warm applause

Be right and proper eulogy

Not a dry eye amongst the tomcats and the dandys
