28 THE GARNET AND GRAY JOKES MUSICALLY SPEAKING Dapper Dan loved Georgette, who lived in Georgia, but she rejected all his proposals, because he had Hot Lips. Dan was hopeful, though, and called at her home at least three times a week. When she was out, her little dog Tricks greeted him. Sometimes he called Yoo-Hoo and she came to the window, and asked him to come in. Then he told her all about his travels in the land Where the Bamboo Babies Grow and how he had sailed on Lovely Lucerne under the japanese Moon. She listened to his ramblings while she played the piano like a Kitten on the Keys. One evening he met her at a dance. Her escort, The Sneak, who believed in Say it While Dancing, was arrested and she was left all alone. NVhen the dance was over at Three O'Clock in the Morning she sighed, Gee, But I Hate to Go Home Alone, so Dan voluteered his services and went Stumbling home with her. As they stood by her door, he declared himself thus: Angel Child I VVish I Knew You Really Loved Me, for I'm All By Myself and I'm Homesick for my Carolina Home. But she answered, I'm Sorry, but Truly, I'm Just Wild About Harry. So Dan walked away saying, Why Should I Cry Over You? Dapper Dan was fickle, however, and soon through his friends, Mr Gallagher and Mr Shean began to correspond with Little Nelly Kelly who was living in Carolina after obtaining a divorce from Lovin' Sam, The Sheik. In one of his letters Dan wrote: Little Nelly Kelly I Love You Q I'll stay here in Georgia Till My Luck Comes Rolling Along and then Some Sunny Day I'll come after you. A few weeks later he met Georgette, who pleaded Wor1't You Come Back to Me. For the Sake of Auld Lang Syne 'cause I'm No- body's Baby and I'm awfully Blue. But Dan said, No, tomorrow I'm going to my Carolina Home after my Sweetheart, Georgette was at the station to see him off the next morning, and while the engflne said, Toot, Toot, Tootsie, Goo'bye, Dan called from the window Good- bye For Ever, I'll be in Carolina in the Morning.
