Opened at the Broadway's New Amsterdam Theatre on December 3, 1903. Ran 105 performances, to about March 1904. Mother Goose is a musical in three acts with music by Frederick Solomon, lyrics by George V. Hobart, and a book by John J. McNally that was adapted from Arthur Collins and J. Hickory Wood's libretto for the 1902 pantomime of the same name. The work's plot pulled loosely from several fairy tales and nursery rhymes, including Mother Goose and Jack and Jill. The work also contained many songs interpolated into the production by other writers, including two songs by George M. Cohan: "Rube" and "Always Leave Them Laughing When You Say Goodbye". Wiki link
