i need some song-identifying help from you peoples

does anyone know the name of that old timey piano song that sounds like it'd be the perfect track for a silent movie? Rev. Lovejoy tired to play it on the organ in the 'Do What You Feel Like' ep of the Simpsons? I think it may be by Charlie Chaplin or at least in one of his movies

I think it may have also been the music on Homer's disjointed silent movie style flashback after a drunken escapade in the episode where they put the curfew in effect for the kids..

I know just about everybody knows how the song goes, but the name of it is a different story..
