This information was assembled by a gentleman I'm pleased to call both a friend and an associate:
A TRUE oldie!! It never charted as a single later than 1906 when 3 versions were noted: those by Byron G. Harlan and by Harry Tally both hit # 1 that year and the one by Prince's Orchestra made it to # 5.
However, it DID appear in 3 films: 1941's "Birth Of the Blues" starring Bing Crosby, Mary Martin, and Eddie "Rochester" Anderson; 1949's "In the Good Old Summertime" starring Judy Garland and Van Johnson; and in 1952's "Wait 'Til the Sun Shines, Nelly" starring Jean Peters and David Wayne.
