Perfesser Bill Edwards -well known rag historian, has this to say about this sheet: With the lyrics, one's imagination can run wild with the intentionally constructed double entendres. It all depends on how you interpret where the engine, or "his little machine," actually is in this particular car. It was one of a few notable songs by the Abrahams, but both Clarke and Leslie had attained a great deal of exposure through association with various composers. Also, for anyone who follows lyrics, have you ever noticed how often "Johnny" is the protagonist of songs from the ragtime era and before? Whether it be in Oldsmobiles. or rowing boats, or going to war, Johnny usually seems to be there. This is no accident, and the name is not-too-distantly related to the adult recreation nomenclature of "John".( The below image is not of this specific sheet but of another version)
