1919. Lyrics by Lew Brown; Music by Albert von Tilzer

 

 

 

In the land of San Domingo

 

Lived a girl called Oh By Jingo

 

(Ta da, ya da da da da da, um-pa, umpa um-pa um-pa)

 

From the fields and from the marshes

 

Came the young and oh by goshes

 

(Ta da, ya da da da da da, um-pa, umpa um-pa um-pa)

 

They all spoke with a different lingo

 

But they all loved Oh By Jingo

 

and every night, they sang in the pale moonlight

 

 

Oh by gee by gosh by gum by jove

 

Oh By Jingo won't you hear our love

 

We will build for you a hut

 

You will be our favourite nut

 

We will have a lot of little Oh By Gollies

 

And we'll put them in the follies

 

By Jingo said "By gosh by gee

 

By Jiminy, please don't bother me"

 

So they all went away singing

 

Oh by gee by gosh by gum by jove By Jingo

 

By gee, you're the only girl for me.

A great capture here. B&W is befitting the composition. The pianist in his early years, honing his skills.

 

Nice.

I agree with Monte. I wish there were a soundtrack. This is just wonderful. What is better than natural lighting. I can almost hear it from here. This goes on my favorite list.

Both versions are very good. the composition as well as the light are very good. I like this one better simply for the fact that the b/w tone makes it more elegant. compliments -koushik

This is a terrific photo. Everything about this photo is terrific. I couldn't be anything but B&W. The hands, the eyes poised to attack the notes on the sheet music pages - perfect. The backlighting that emphasizes the parted lips, a sign of deep concentration. And the fantastic point of view, running down the keyboard. Great job! Love it!!

 

Cheers ~
