Ginny:

All were nice renditions but that was a Kolmer-Cooper compostion that I
mentioned earler as the one I sang years ago with the Smith Street Society
Jazz Band.
and learned the lyrics to by listening to a Kenny Ball LP

I imagine I would love to hear it by Pat Yankee though.

The one that Bud had been referring to was one co-written by Eddie Cantor in
1920.which apparently is just entitled "Green River"
