This thread began in 070121 MMDigest as "song titles that make us
smile, such as 'T'aint No Sin To Take Off Your Skin'", but recently
it's morphed into a list of novelty or 'party song' titles from the
later phonograph era, so it's time now to finish the discussion thread
and let it rest awhile.

Here in conclusion are some favorite vintage song titles most recently
sent in by MMD readers that were performed on piano rolls or nickelodeon
rolls:

1912: If You Talk In Your Sleep Don't Mention My Name
1916: Where Did Robinson Crusoe Go With Friday On Saturday Night?
1917: They Go Wild, Simply Wild Over Me
1918: I'm Too Tired To Make Love
1919: Wait Till You Get Them Up in the Air Boys
1924: I Had Someone Else Before I Had You
      (And I'll Have Someone After You're Gone)
1926: How Could Red Riding Hood (Have Been So Very Good
      And Still Keep the Wolf Away From the Door?)

Tony Liene says this title was on a QRS roll: "If I Said You Have
a Beautiful Body Would You Hold It Against Me?"

And Bruce Grimes writes that he is looking for a copy of this roll
which he saw in an antique store long ago but didn't buy (the title
is approximate, he says):  "If you want to get Kate(?), you've got to
get her in the rumble seat first!"
