[Dixielandjazz] Goofus

[Kevin Yeates]

Thanks to everyone for their responses on my question. 
As Phil has noted below there is an "A" part and a "B" part. The "A" part contains the lyrics I have quoted. 
I have checked all of my fake books and can't find a copy of the "B" part and obviously no words for the "B" part. 
Does anyone have a lead sheet that includes the "B" part?  Lyrics would also be be appreciated for the "B" part.

The tune has an A part which starts as you quote, then a B part, then the A part is repeated with other lyrics. If you want to play it more than once, you start over t A. A-B-A-A-B-A, etc.
