Could be the same
As Sweet Georgia Brown.
Crazy feet that dance so neat
Has sweet Georgia Brown.
Fella's sigh, and even cry
For sweet Georgia Brown.
I tell you just why
It's been said
She knocks them dead
In any old town.
Since she came right
It's a shame
How she brings them down.

Her skilled feet move exquisitely

Men swoon and even weep with desire

Ever since her arrival
It's a shame
It's unfortunate

This so reminds me of my late dad out cycling pre war. Classy, smooth and fast. Went out together when I was a brat kid, and did I get a master class in riding and tactics. Dad looked like his hero, Fausto Coppi, smooth and slick on the bike, whilst was an unmade bed! Years later, I'm slick, smooth and cool on the bike whilst my grandson is the unmade bed ,, Thanks dad and Django, you have done more than you will ever know!!
