@huzoso Yes, they did say 'dude' back then, although it meant something like 'fop', if I'm not mistaken. "A dude as light as cork" is I think a way of saying a very effeminate dandy.
Can you tell me who does this version? I really like it a lot. I have another version by Vernon Dalhart on the Columbia black & gold label. I'll post it in the next day or two. Thanks for sharing.
I am 68 years old. My great Auntie Julie taught me this song was I was three years old. I still remember the words. Thank you.
Great Song!!! Thanks for Posting this. Helped me to Miss New York again a little & Remember Happy Memories from there again.
I'm going to be playing this on the piano soon.
I remember this from a film starring Bob Hope & Jimmy Durante.. even though I can't remember for the life of me what the film is called!
