Eddie Cantor
American "illustrated song" performer, comedian, dancer, singer, actor and songwriter Eddie Cantor was a well known face for Broadway, radio, film and early television audiences. His nickname "Banjo Eyes" referred to his elaborate eye-rolling song and dance routines. The Coots/Gillespie classic "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" was first sung on Cantor's radio show in 1934. His own hits include "Makin' Whoopee" and "If You Knew Susie". As an actor, he turned down the lead role in first talking film "The Jazz Singer", but did have a starring role in the 1930 Hollywood film version of "Whoopee!" among others.

Goodbye blues
Birdies are singing every old things in tune
Goodbye blues
Nothing but laughter morning and afternoon
I saw a rose bud in a star
So I’m going where there’s more
Goodbye blues
Troubles are over I’m in clover
I’m Alabama bound
I'm Alabamy bound,
There'll be no heebie jeebies hangin' round.
Just gave the meanest ticket mam on earth
All I'm worth,
To put my tootsies in an upper berth.
Just hear that choo-choo sound,
I know that soon we're gonna cover ground,
And then I'll holler so
The world will know;
Here I go!
I'm Alabamy bound!
I'm Alabamy bound,
There'll be no heebie jeebies hangin' round.
Just gave the meanest ticket mam on earth
All I'm worth,
To put my tootsies in an upper berth.
Just hear that choo-choo sound,
I know that soon we're gonna cover ground,
And then I'll holler so
The world will know;
Here I go!
I'm Alabamy bound!
Birdies are singing every old things in tune
Goodbye blues
Nothing but laughter morning and afternoon
I saw a rose bud in a star
So I’m going where there’s more
Goodbye blues
Troubles are over I’m in clover
I’m Alabama bound
I'm Alabamy bound,
There'll be no heebie jeebies hangin' round.
Just gave the meanest ticket mam on earth
All I'm worth,
To put my tootsies in an upper berth.
Just hear that choo-choo sound,
I know that soon we're gonna cover ground,
And then I'll holler so
The world will know;
Here I go!
I'm Alabamy bound!
I'm Alabamy bound,
There'll be no heebie jeebies hangin' round.
Just gave the meanest ticket mam on earth
All I'm worth,
To put my tootsies in an upper berth.
Just hear that choo-choo sound,
I know that soon we're gonna cover ground,
And then I'll holler so
The world will know;
Here I go!
I'm Alabamy bound!
