One version, related to Keith's above, I recall sung on an old W Country record (Yetties, maybe? Wish I could remember who -- anyone help?)


John The Bon went marching on
When he met with Sally Dover.[bis]

He kissed her once, he kissed her twice
He kissed her three times over.[bis]

John said to me one day
"Can you dance the flora?"[bis]

"Yes I can with a nice young man
Through the streets of Trura."[bis]
