I've Got Rings On My Fingers
I've Got Rings On My Fingers is a popular song written in 1909, words by Weston and Barnes, and music by Maurice Scott. It concerns an Irishman named Jim O'Shea, a castaway who finds himself on an island somewhere in the East Indies, whereupon he is made Chief Panjandrum by the natives because they like his red hair and his Irish smile. He then sends a letter to his girlfriend, Rose McGee, imploring her to come join him. The song was a hit for Ada Jones, and for Blanche Ring (who first performed it in ''The Midnight Sons'', and carried it over into 1910's ''The Yankee Girl''.).Borman, Gerald & Richard NortonAmerican Musical Theatre: A Chronicle pp. 294, 300 (4th ed. 2011) The verses explain the situation.

My Pony Boy
"My Pony Boy" is a popular song written in 1909 by Bobby Heath (lyrics) and Charley O'Donnell. It was incorporated into the Broadway musical ''Miss Innocence'' (1909) where it was introduced by Lillian Lorraine. Description Along with songs like "Cheyenne", it became a cliché, as its tune was frequently used in Western movies and cartoons. It works especially well when played on a "honky tonk" piano. The first verse explains that the central character of the song has many female admirers; the second that the "Fluffy Ruffle girl" has won his heart. The chorus: :Pony Boy, Pony Boy :Won't you be my Tony boy :Don't say no :Here we go :Off across the plains :Marry me :Carry me :Right away with you :Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, whoa! :My Pony Boy The old expression "giddy up", exhorting a horse to gallop at high speed, is a corruption of "get ye up". The term "tony" refers to someone of high "tone" or social elegance. In the 1931 Krazy Kat short ''Rodeo Dough'', a female spaniel ...

Waiting At The Church
"Waiting at the Church" is a popular British music hall song written by Fred W. Leigh (words) and Henry E. Pether (music) for Vesta Victoria, and copyrighted in 1906. It is sung by a bride-to-be who has given her fiancé, Obadiah Binks, all her money to buy a ring or a house, only to be left "waiting at the church"; she finds out the truth when Obadiah sends her a note telling her he is already married. It has featured in a number of films since the earliest days of cinema. The silent film '' Waiting at the Church'' featured a performance by Victoria as she acted out the lyrics. Several other silent films were made to accompany recordings of the song. Sound films which use the song include ''Here Come the Huggetts'', ''Millions Like Us'' and '' I Thank You''. Richard Thompson included it on his album '' 1000 Years of Popular Music''. It has also been covered many times, including by Julie Andrews and Miss Piggy.

The Yama Yama Man
"The Yama Yama Man" was a comical song for the Broadway show ''The Three Twins'', published in 1908 by M. Witmark & Sons with music by Karl Hoschna and lyrics by Collin Davis. It became popular after Bessie McCoy's animated performance in a satin Pierrot clown costume with floppy gloves and a cone hat. At age 20, she became an overnight sensation on Broadway and was known thereafter as the "Yama Yama Girl"; it became her lifelong theme song. The show ran for 288 performances. The lyrics contain topical references of the era such as street cars and ladies' fashion while the refrain is about a comical bogeyman—the Yama Yama Man—who is "ready to spring out at you unaware". Bessie McCoy's song and dance routine was a standard into the 1930s with a prestigious lineage of imitators including Ada Jones, Marilyn Miller, Irene Castle and Ginger Rogers. History Bessie McCoy's signature performance was key in establishing the song's popularity. According to Marjorie Farnsworth, "tho ...
