Thread Name: Lyr Add: Down at the Old Bull and Bush
Subject: RE: Tune Add: DOwn at the old Bull and Bush
This was originally called "UNDER THE ANHEUSER BUSH" when it was published in 1903.

Music by Harry Von Tilzer.
Words by Andrew B. Sterling.
It's in the Levy collection.

I'm sure I read years ago that the lyrics were changed to "Down at the old Bull and Bush" during the First WW because of anti-German feelings! (Like German Shepherd was changed to Alsatian)
