Ja-da Ja-da Ja-da Ja-da Jing-Jing Jing


One of our beginner songs at the Berkeley Ukulele Club is Ja-da. I was wondering if there were additional lyrics to the song and googled. Got Brian Hefferan's site and found the lyrics here...
http://www.heftone.com/words/jada.html and there are additional lyrics. Here's the sheet music cover, lyrics page 1 and page 2...

The song is dated MCMXVIII (1918) so if it beyond its copywrite date and is now public domain. I notice that Brian sings Ja-da as Scat/Chorus/Scat/Chorus... http://www.heftone.com/wild/jada.mp3
