| 1924 - w. Walter Melrose m. Charlie Davis | |
| Verse: | Way down in Old New Orleans You will find shoulder shakin' queens And when they roll their eyes You wake up in paradise. |
| Chorus: | Professer man won't you play Copenhagen 'cause that's one tune sure has got me runnin' wild. Nobody knows how that tune burns up my clothers So Hey Hey Hey Syncopate all night long. |
A YouTube search can assist you with Song Recognition ONLY.
Carefully match both Verse and Chorus lyrics. Many songs have the same or similar titles.
Try alternate searches, but there are well-known PD songs not found on YouTube.
The lyrics, melody. and arrangement of Copenhagen as published before 1930 are in the public domain in the USA. However, it is a virtual certainty that video, sound recordings, and 1930 or later music arrangements of this song are under copyright protection.
The ONLY way to know precisely what lyrics and melody are in the public domain is to obtain a
Sheet Music Publication with a Copyright Date of 1929 or earlier.
You then work from the PD publication to create your own derivative work, but you cannot use or work from any version published after 1922.
