Written by Gilbert Wills and Johnnie Dunn

1926

I plunked out just the notes to the verses on an electronic keyboard.  Listen below:

 

The chords and lyrics in the key of C.

 

The original musical notation in the key of F.  I transposed it (above) to a more singable key for me.

 

Thank you Hoyle Osborne for transposing this to the key in which I wrote the chords (C).

 

Local fiddler, Bruce Thomson, compiled a book of tunes
played in Albuquerque at contradances and other places
where tunes are played.

Questions?  Comments?
Contact Bruce!
Join the monthly JAM and play some of these tunes.

This list was compiled as part of a presentation about Jewish Lyricists in American popular music during the Tin Pan Alley Era.  It is certainly very incomplete, but of interest to those who attend our presentations.
