George Formby - Do De O Do (1932)

George Formby sings "Do De O Do" on Decca F. 3079, issued in 1932 with "Chinese Blues" on the reverse side.

In modern music some clever guy has
started a brand new craze--a fellow
must put Do De O Do into all he sings
or plays. Now some may think this
foolish, but I'm not one of those, for I
attach importance to those Do De O
Do, Do De O Do's. Now you can't be
rich--you're poor instead without the
Do De O, Do De O Do.

You can't make cakes and you can't
make bread without the Do De O, Do De
O Do. You need it in your music, as any
child will know. The Ray Me Fah So La's
all right, but what about the Do De O
Do?

Now we take these champion boxers--
there's a lot that we all know who fall on
the ground in the second round to get
the Do De O De O De O Do.
