Dear Bob,
Unfortunately, I can't help with the sheet music, but the following
information may help you track it down.
"She Knows Her Onions" (1926. Jack Yellen - Milton Ager - Lew Pollack)
It was quite popular and a quick check shows that it was recorded at the
time by: 
Broadway Bellhops (Sam Lanin)
Ben Selvin and His Orchestra
JC Flippen
California Ramblers
Varsity Eight
Bennie Kruger and His Orchestra
Jones and Hare [Billy Jones & Ernest Hare. A vaudeville team]
There are probably others.
If want to hear the JC Flippen version go to the Red Hot Jazz site (via
Google). Search for up JC Flippen and click on the title contained in his
discography.
I did a Google search for the sheet music, but without luck.
Listmate Craig Johnson is a whiz on navigating the internet and may have
better success.
Kind regards,
Bill.
