Soon we were in Vaudiville and I was a German comedian with a spade beard.
I was dressed like my uncle Al Sheen with Gallaghan Sheen in those days.
That was my mother's brother.
I don't know if you remember him but he used to sing, Oh Mr. Gallaghan, Oh Mr. Gallaghan,
what's on your mind this morning Mr. Sheen?
So I became a German comedian.
We were playing in Shays, Toronto when the Lusitania was sunk in the First World War.
I was supposed to sing a song, a German song.
I was afraid if I did they were going to kill me that audience.
I'm going to sing the song for you now.
