| Ajoutée par gorden-gibson, 22 Déc 2015 The title is taken from a popular song of the 19th century, "Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines," which Sigmund Spaeth (A History of Popular Music in America) states was composed by an English music hall singer named William Horace Lingard who had emigrated to America. Lingard was the manager of Wood's Theatre in New York City..."a protean man who was an accomplished female impersonator, the lyricist for 'Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines', and, in 1867, the much acclaimed renderer of Lingard's Great Statue Song, a quick-change routine in which, with only a few seconds' pause between metamorphoses, he transformed himself from Mayor John T. Hoffman to Governor Horatio Seymour to Horace Greeley to Benjamin F. Butler to Ulysses S. Grant to President Andrew Johnson." (E. J. Khan, The Merry Partners: the Age and Stage of Harrigan & Hart, 1955, pg. 152). Confirming that Lingard wrote the lyrics, Denes Agay (Best Loved Songs of the American People, pp. 156-157) however, credits the music to a T. Maclagan. In another volume (Reed 'Em and Weep, 1927, p. 63) Spaeth refers to a play called Captain Jinks in which Ethel Barrymore made her debut as a star in 1901. Source / Web : | T.
