[Dixielandjazz] Everybody don´t know / He´s the Lily of the Valley

[Ingemar Wågerman]

"Everybody don´t know" = first strain of the New Orleans jazz standard tune 
"Lily of the valley" was recorded by Rev F.W. Gates in 1930. The next 
recording I know was by Paul Barbarin in 1951. Nothing between those dates?? 
The verse ("Everybody don´t know / who Jesus is") is almost the same as "O 
Happy Day", but what is the origin of the chorus melody ("He´s the lily of 
the valley...")?
