"I Wonder Where My Baby Is Tonight", a charming, upbeat dance number about the Charleston. I particularly like the narrator's can-do spirit (
I wonder, does my baby do the Charleston?
I wonder who is teaching her the Charleston?
While I sit and sigh,
The time goes dragging by;
I'd like to kill the guy who wrote the Charleston!
We parted cause I couldn't do the Charleston;
She'd still be here if I could do the Charleston;
I'm taking lessons now -
I'll win 'er back somehow!
I wonder where my baby is tonight?
).
