Aint Misbehavin'
Ain't Misbehavin' / Lookin' Good But Feelin' Bad / 'Tain't Nobody's Biz-ness If I Do
Hi there, fellas
Whatcha say?
This a little Fats Waller
My mother's 285 pounds of jam, jive, and everything
They got me in on this V-diss mess this afternoon
So here it is! Watch out!
One of my own compositions
Ain't Misbehavin'
And I ain't either
Aw yes, oh hell of a yeah
No one to talk with
All by myself
No one to walk with
But I'm happy on the elevation, I mean the shelf
Ain't misbehavin'
I'm savin' my love for you
And you, and you, oh and 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
Oh, hi Daddy
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
I don't care to go
I'm home about eight
Just me and my neighbor's radio
(I can't afford one) Ain't misbehavin'
I'm savin' my love for you
Savin' my love just for you
Ah, shucks Daddy
I love it when you move
No one to talk with
All by myself
No one to walk with but - who? Her? Oh, she's nobody
She's just a little girl
She just came to drop off some Girl Scout cookies
Ain't misbehavin'
I'm savin' my love for you
I know for certain
The one I love
What do you mean, you didn't know Girl Scouts deliver?
They do, yes
Ain't misbehavin'
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
Mm, but while we're waiting
I don't stay out late
I'm always home, baby (Don't care to go)
Don't wanna go nowhere
I'm home about eight, just me and my radio
Ain't misbehavin'
Daddy, I can explain the whole thing!
Ain't misbehavin'
Sweetheart, he forced me!
Ain't misbehavin'
Savin' my love for you!
Looking good but feeling bad
From grievin' over you
Lookin' good to hide those bitter blues
Weary days and lonely nights
I'm waiting here for you
Hoping that my love you won't refuse
Roh doh doh doh doh doh doh
Roh doh doh doh doh
Roh doh doh doh doh doh doh
Bah bah bah bah bah bah bah
Looking good but feeling bad
Is mighty hard to do
When I'm feelin' blue
And needing you
And needing you
Roh doh doh doh doh doh doh
Roh doh doh doh doh
Roh doh doh doh doh doh doh
Roh doh doh doh doh doh doh
If I should take a notion
To jump into the ocean
'Tain't nobody's business if I do
If I go to church on Sunday
The cabaret all day on Monday
'Tain't nobody's business if I do
If my friend ain't got no money
And I say "Take all mine, honey"
'Tain't nobody's business if I do
If I give her my last nickel
And that leaves me in a pickle
'Tain't nobody's business if I do
There ain't nothing I can do
Nor nothing I can say
That folks don't criticize me
But I'm going to do
Just as I want to anyway
And don't care if they all despise me
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
If I work and come home draggin'
Then stay up all night raggin'
Ain't nobody's business if I do
If I eat three turkey dinners
And announce that's just beginners
Ain't nobody's business if I do
If I date a real stone setter
But go home with someone better
Ain't nobody's business if I do
If I party, stay out drinkin'
And buy me a ten-grand Lincoln
Ain't nobody's business if I do
If I feed my wife baloney
And don't pay my alimony
'Tain't nobody's business if I do
If I buy something sporty
If I die before I'm forty
It ain't your business
It ain't my business
It ain't her business
It ain't their business
'Tain't nobody's business if I do!
