It's an old, old story
Been around since way back when
Don't know if it's real or fake
Gotta know for goodness sake
He was my granddad
That's what my old man said
But it happened so long ago and they're all long ago dead
It was roaring 20s and times were grand and gay
Old Jack he made his mark
All along the great white way
Yeah he wrote some snappy tunes
He rhymed his moons with Junes
He made his whoopee the livelong day
He wrote, You made life cheery
When you called me dearie 'Twas down where the blue grass grows Your lips were sweeter than julep
When you wore a tulip and I wore a big red rose 
It's an old, old story
Been around since way back when
I heard it in my youth
Still don't know if it's the truth
Why would Dad make this up
He was no phony
Why would he say his old dad
Was Jack Mahoney
After Dad passed away Iried to sort it out
Needed to know for sure
Needed to remove all doubt
Was it all bushwa
Was it all applesauce
Was it phonus balonus
Was it teacups and candyfloss
