Is this tune from the 1930s referring to something obscure?

[Ptah]

Oh, the flat foot floogie with a floy, floy,
Flat foot floogie with a floy, floy,
Flat foot floogie with a floy, floy,
Floy doy, floy doy, floy doy.

Yeah, yeah yeah, byah, oh, baby!
Yeah, byah, byah, oh, baby!
Yeah, byah, byah, oh, baby!
Yeah, byah, byah!

Whenever your cares are chronic,
Just tell the world, "go hang,"
You'll find a greater tonic,
If you go on swingin' with the gang!

Flat foot floogie with a floy, floy,
Flat foot floogie with a floy, floy,
Floy, floy, floy, yeah!
Send me on out there!

Whenever your cares are chronic,
Just tell the world, "go hang,"
You'll find a greater tonic,
If you go on stumblin' with the gang!
Hey, hey, hey, yes, yes!

2. I saw this in comments from another youtube video... refers to VD?

Floy Floy was hip speak slang for VD back then. Flat Foot Floogie was hip speak slang for a Street Walking prostitute. The original title for the song was Flat Foot Floozie with the Floy Floy and all the jazz musicians and hipsters in 1938 knew exactly what that meant. They had to change Floozie to Floogie in order to get the song past the censors for radio air play.

Old folks like me, who were there at the time, jazz musicians and/or other assorted hip people, will all confirm that,.

Whether that is true or not is beyond me...

Interesting though....
