Well, I've done some research on this.  It was written by Fred Rose -- 
of Nashville Acuff-Rose fame -- and (probably) first recorded by the 
Coon-Sanders Band.  The best recent record of it that I've discovered is 
here on YouTube by Sharkey & Co -- a 70's French band that does a great 
job on old 20's "trad" tunes like this.

A couple of questions for the experts here...
1. Any idea what the title "Deep Henderson" means??
2. In the Coon-Sanders version, at the end of the first chorus-- second 
stop -- the band hollers something together.  (I love it when a band 
does this!!)   Do you have any idea what they say??

I'll have another question in a little while.    Stay tuned!
