Have you seen the ghost of Tom
Long white bones with the rest all gone

Wouldn’t it be chilly with no skin on

I thought the lyrics went:
Have you seen the ghost of Tom?
Eyes bugged out and nose toooo long . . .
Big ugly teeth and a shiny white chin,
Only one cheek to keep his tongue in . . .
That is how I have sung it for decades.
Folk songs often have many versions. Thanks for sharing yours!
