| Navek - I stand corrected. Perhaps Cab Calloway performed the song?
Thanks for putting the record straight
Excuse the pun.

Milton Ager was one of the top songwriters during the waning days of the Roaring '20s and the early days of the Depression. He composed many popular standards — "Ain't She Sweet?," "Happy Days Are Here Again," "Happy Feet," and "I'm Nobody's Baby," most with words by Jack Yellen — as well as quite a few novelty hits of the day like "Lovin' Sam, The Sheik of Alabam'" and "Mama Goes Where Papa Goes (Or Papa Don't Go Out Tonight)."
