Collins and Harlan sing "Everybody's Doing It Now" (Irving Berlin song) on Victor 17020, recorded on November 22, 1911.
Honey, honey, can't you hear
Funny, funny music, dear?
Ain't the funny strain
Goin' to your brain
Like a bottle of wine? Fine!
Hon', hon'--take a chance.
One, one little dance.
Can't you see them all
Swaying up the hall?
Let's be gettin' in line!
Ev'rybody's doin' it
Doin' it, doin' what?
Ev'rybody's doin' it
Doin' it, doin' it
See that ragtime couple over there
Watch them throw their shoulders in the air
Snap their fingers
Honey, I declare
It's a bear, it's a bear
Where?
There!
Ev'rybody's doin' it
Doin' it, doin' it
Ev'rybody's doin' it
Doin' it, doin' it
Ain't that music
touching your
heart? Hear that
trombone
bustin' apart?
Now come,
come--let us
start! Ev'rybody
doin' it now!
Baby, baby get a stool
Maybe, maybe I'm a fool
Honey, don't you smile
Let us rest a while
I'm so weak in the chest, best
Go, go, go, go get a chair
No, no, no, no leave it there
Honey, if the mob
Still are on the job
I'm as strong as the rest
