It would be the kind of song his band/orchestra would play. He would play music like this to get people to dance and to show that he's 'hip with the times', so to speak. This is the 1920's equivalent of pop you might hear at a nightclub today.
The mood is very jovial and upbeat. It uses a fast-tempo and cheerful sounding instruments like trumpets to help give off a happy vibe. It's in a major key, which adds to the joyous feel.
This is definitely a dancing song. People would grab a partner and start partying.
