Written by Harry Parr-Davies, the title track of this George Formby film was recorded by George on the Regal Zonophone label July 17, 1938. According to Desmond Carrington in a May 2013 broadcast of his programme The Music Goes Round, it was extremely popular with the Royal Air Force during the Second World War, a fact that is hardly surprising.
According to the Brendan Ryan catalogue and discography of the Ukulele Man's work which was commissioned by the George Formby Society, he recorded this song on January 29, 1933, for the Decca and Rex labels. It was co-written by Jack Cottrell (who wrote "Chinese Laundry Blues") and Bud Bennett. Along with "Chinese Laundry Blues" it was performed by George in the 1934 film Boots! Boots!
