Beautiful cover design by Starmer. Stanley Murphy (1875 - 1919) was an Irish-American lyricist known for his work on popular early 20th-century songs, often collaborating with composers like Henry I. Marshall (1883 - 1958). Marshall, an American composer, worked extensively in vaudeville and Broadway. Among their well-known collaborations is another Bee inspired song written a year earlier in 1912 - "Be My Little Baby Bumble Bee" Both songs are in the vaudeville style, popular in the early 20th century. [Verse I] Neath a big birch tree Lived a Bumble bee, And he knew that he was in love; For of late he'd seen, Oh, the cutest Queen! In the orchard just up above. So they met one day, In a field of hay. On a clover blossom red. And he buzzed around Till these words he found. Tehn he signed and softly said: [Chorus] When it's buzz, buzz, buzzin' time in bee, bee, bee town I'll be buzz, buzz, buzzin' round with you; Tho' your duzz, duzz dozen little cuzz, cuzz, cousins may be buzz, buzz, buzzin'round you too! But you will fly away with me to see the preacher bee, And when I've settle dup we'll settle down: Then I'll build a cozy little home All out of wax and honey comb. In buzz, buzz, buzzin-time in bee town. . . A note about the cover art : Some of the most creative and eye-catching cover art of the ragtime-era were done by one of the prolific, but elusive, Starmer Brothers. Their work was of consistently high quality and they were turning out nearly a quarter of all large format covers from the late 1890s to around 1919. The identity of the artists was unknown until an invoice was discovered with a printed heading describing "Starmer" as artist and medical draughtsman. Not much else is known about the Starmer family.
