![]() Handful of Keys (1929) [ larger cover art ] |
No one to talk with.
All by myself.
No one to walk with,
But I'm happy
On the shelf.
Ain't misbehavin',
I'm savin' my love for you.
I know for certain
The one I love.
I'm through with flirtin',
It's you that I'm thinkin' of.
Ain't misbehavin'.
I'm savin' my love for you.
Like Jack Horner
In the corner.
Don't go nowhere.
What do I care?
Your kisses
Are worth waitin' for,
Believe me.
I don't stay out late,
Don't care to go.
I'm home about eight,
Just me and my radio.
Ain't misbehavin',
I'm savin' my love for you.
Ain't misbehavin',
I'm savin' my love for you.

| dolumo (A´burg) | Posted: Oct 09, 2011 - 04:16 A genius at work!! He wrote this; one of the most well known jazz songs ever! Everyone sang this tune. Why do you have so few of his works on RP??!! A little more jazz would def be great......your library has some major deficits in this sector. Modern Jazz Quartet for a start.......... |

| socalhol (Seattle) | Posted: Aug 03, 2011 - 16:24 Very timely playing this! I just attended an event last night previewing clips from the upcoming Ken Burns Documentary "Prohibition". Will be fun to see if they include this song — it will air on PBS Oct 1, 2 & 3. |
| emmidad (Los Gatos, CA) | Posted: Aug 03, 2011 - 16:21 Why isn't anyone called "Fats" anymore? |
