| Extra Information | A humorous song about a father's dreams about his infant son, and his wishes for his son in later life. Mayo would sing this at the piano, comically to a plastic doll. He also sang this for a Pathetone Weekly from 1930, calling the song "his latest". This is the explanation for the different year of composition from first publication. |
