sentimental gentleman
I have looked on the internet for the lyrics to song from the 1930s, but I can't find them. What are the words to the song "Sentimental Gentleman from Georgia"? I know multiple artists have sang it, but I'm not sure who did it originally. I would really like to have the words

The earliest recordings date from 1932 so this is probably when the song appeared.
In the early 1930s there were no 'definitive' hit versions but popular songs were covered by most leading singers and dance bands, all of whom were likely to have recorded the song around the same time.
Song publishers judged the popularity of songs in those days by sales of sheet music, rather than records.
