I'm looking for the version of Sweet Georgia Brown that was played at the Harlem Globetrotters games. Any leads?

Yeah, the lyrics to the Harlem Globetrotters version are:

Whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle.
Whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle.

Profound, no?
The song was written in 1925 by Ben Bernie, Maceo Pinkard, and Kenneth Casey.
Do you want the lyrics, the tune, recordings, or what??

Rest in peace, Meadowlark Lemon. You worked really hard to make people forget about their troubles.
