Look and ListenLength: approx. 3¼ mins. Optional vocals (tenor), words by Stanley Murphy:
Put on your old grey Bonnet is another typical Tin Pan Alley ballad completely in touch with then prevalent general public taste but nonetheless has endured and is still performed and recorded even today. The song itself is of an aged couple, Silas and Miranda, celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversary. This recorder adaptation is not particularly demanding and benefits from being accompanied by a vocalist.
Put on your old grey Bonnet was published by Jerome H. Remick & Co., New York & Detroit, USA.
