Happy Feet Happy feet! I've got those happy feet! Give them a low-down beat And they begin dancing! I've got those ten little tapping toes, When they hear a tune I can't control the dancing, dear, To save my soul! Those weary blues can't get into my shoes, Because my shoes refuse To ever grow weary. I keep cheerful on an earful Of music sweet; Just got those hap-hap-happy feet!

Why do you bob your hair girls? Blind Alfred Reed Why do you bob your hair, girls? You're doing mighty wrong; God gave it for a glory And you should wear it long. You spoil your lovely hair, girls, You keep yourself in style; Before you bob your hair, girls, Just stop and think a while.

Why do you bob your hair, girls? It is an awful shame To rob the head God gave you And bear the flapper's name. You're taking off your covering, It is an awful sin; Don't never bob your hair, girls, Short hair belongs to men.
