Re alternative dates mentioned by Joe ~~ 1932 for Jimmy Kennedy's words seems about right. He was a prolific songwriter around then ~~ Isle of Capri [memorably sung by the great Gracie Fields] & Red Sails In The Sunset are both mentioned above; also that oddly English Cowboy-song, South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way), and the early 40s v popular novelty dance The Hokey Cokey, a variant of the old Here We Go Looby-loo which I remember from schooldays about 1936.
