This was a quite popular song, I have it on cylinder. I don't have the Columbia disc reference but it was issued on Edison 2-minute in September and again in November 1904. So, I would assume that your disc is also from 1904, but very likely not post-1905.

The lyrics refer to sail in an airship, so I'd say it's a zeppelin type airship.

Not to be confused with "Come, Josephine, in my Flying Machine" ("see how up, we go, down, we go,")!
