This song from film sung by Clara Bow,written by Elsie Janis( a well known singer, vaudeville entertainer, silent film star, screen and songwriter, member of ASCAP) could have influencd Irving Berlin to write "You Can't Get A man With A Gun" form "Annie GetYour Gun!"1950. The songs are very similar.

It’s also similar to “The Man’s in the Navy,” written by Frederick Hollander (music) and Frank Loesser (lyrics) and performed by Marlene Dietrich in the 1940 film “Seven Sinners.”
