Rita Coolidge, Her Mad Dog, and Englishman in brief

Where did the saying Mad Dogs and Englishmen come from?

The expression, believed to be coined by Rudyard Kipling, was popularized as a line in the 1931 song “Mad Dogs and Englishmen” (Noel Coward), mocking the behavior of the English when in hot countries, especially former colonies of the British Empire.

I did get to see them in Chi on that tour.
