Johnny (c: DJML)--
Welcome to the group! Glad you're with us.
As luck would have it, not only do i have a leadsheet for this piece, but i happen to know you personally and live in the same town as you do (where else but Austin, Texas?).
All i have is the leadsheet, not the full original song, but others in this group may be able to point you in that direction. The leadsheet i have is from the most excellent _Buck Creek Book_ (for C or concert-pitch instruments) and was indeed written by "H. Qualli Clark & Signor Friscoe Lou Chiha" in 1920.
I can scan it in and send you a PDF of it if you would like it.

Howdy dixieland fans!
I am brand new to this group, but you came highly recommended to me - so
thank you for letting me be a part of the community!
I am on the hunt for sheet music to "Shake it and Break it", not "Weary
Blues", written by Frisco Lou Chiha and H. Qualli Clark; played by King
Oliver and Sidney Bechet. (http://youtu.be/1I-Fo_JtvtQ) I have several
variations of Charley Patton's version, but that is a different song. Can
anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advanced!
