This comes down to the reproduction here of the song's lyrics, which I am fairly sure are out of copyright. If this is a problem we can easily take the lyrics off and keep the rest of the article. —

I've tagged the lyrics as a copyvio. Without more info its impossible to determine if the song is public domain, and absent evidence to the contrary, we must assume it is copyrighted. What we would really need to establish it as Public Domain is an indication on when the song was first published, but before 1980 doesn't really help. It either must have been published before 1923, or a more detailed Public Domain rationale must be provided.

Okay, we'll take the words off then, because I'm sure they're after 1923. If I can find something saying for sure they're PD, we can think about putting them back. Thanks Monty. —
