Seek Words to "Put a Penny in the Slot"
By Kevin McElhone

Are there any new sites online where I can find the words to old tunes,
please?  I have looked at two or three but I cannot find the date of
publication or the words to a tune found recently on an organette:
"Put a Penny in the Slot," by Alfred Cellier.  Can anyone help, please?

Thank you,
Kevin McElhone
