IF THE REST OF THE WORLD DON'T WANT YOU
(Go Back to Mother and Dad) - Ballad
(Dreyer-Gerber)
Irving Kaufman with Orchestra Accompaniment
Vocalion B-14776, 1924.

Please watch in High-Definition for better quality!

Irving Kaufman at his very best with a real tear-jerker of a song!
This is one of the records from my grandmother's collection, found neatly packed away in her steamer trunk.
The illustrations are from children's books from 1916 and 1930.

"When you've started to roam
Away from your home,
And you've left all your Dear Ones behind.
When your wandering years
Have been filled with tears,
There is one thing to bear in mind.
If the rest of the world don't want you;
If the rest of the world don't care;
If they all frown
And turn you down,
There's a welcome for you somewhere!
When you've lost all your pride
And they've cast you aside;
When you've lost every friend you had;
If the rest of the world don't want you,
Then go back to your Mother and Dad!
When you find you're alone,
A poor rolling stone,
And your life is an empty affair.
Though you cry and regret,
Don't you forget
There is someone who waits somewhere!
When you've lost all your pride
And they've cast you aside;
When you've lost every friend you had;
If the rest of the world don't want you,
Then go back to your Mother and Dad!"

I just restored a old Piano roll and was missing the label, all it had were the words on the sides. Thanks I now know this is the song. I will record the roll some day...

Beautiful video
These images have a lot of naive freshness;
Compliments.

Thanks. I enjoyed it. A change of pace for the usually upbeat Kaufman.

I don't take back anything I just said.

I don't understand why anyone would like this rubbish. There is no bass drop, in fact i'm not even sure there is a base.

-3/13 Would not listen.
