Hi, George -
With lyrics like that, the melody just has to be "Alice Blue Gown." "(In my Sweet Little) Alice Blue Gown" was published in 1919, with words by Joseph McCarthy and music by Harry Tierney. It's from the musical play Irene. The lyrics of this song describe Alice Roosevelt Longworth's favorite shade of blue. Alice was Teddy Roosevelt's daughter.

Googling for turpentine stupes brings up lots of information on the song. This article says the tune for the song is "Bless 'Em All," but that has to be wrong.
