This song by J. P. Long and Maurice Scott was published in 1919, so was a new piece when this recording was made. Like a great number of popular songs of its time it's about a failing relationship - but while most are men scared of their wives, this has a much more regretful mood.
This \"Hayes & Croft\" Coliseum disc was originally on Venus 1613 as by the \"Two Filberts\". But both hid the names of the artists, who were actually Harry Cove and William. H. Thompson, stalwarts of the early recording studio under a vast array of differing pseudonyms.
