Ada de Lachau is included on lists of female composers, but I can find no information whatsoever. She is cited as composer of this piece by Red Hot Jazz.

The 1917 Earl Fuller recording is typical early New Orleans band, with the phrase sung just as Poppagator posts it, but no other words. A classic recording on Victor that helped spread jazz music across the country.
