It wasn't just a song, it was a movie.

I think the 1924 movie was an animated, follow-the-bouncing-ball singalong to the popular 1905 song.

I have not been able to find the lyrics to the 1905 song. If we can find those, they might reveal the connection to this photo. Would you search, too, please?
