Andy Razaf also penned the lyrics to Fats Waller classics like "Ain't Misbehavin," "The Joint Is Jumpin'", and "Keepin' Out of Mischief Now".

I understand, in theory, it's possible to perform "Ain't Misbehavin'" and sing it straight but... but I find it almost impossible not to vamp it up and sing it tongue-i cheek. ("I'm saving all my love for. And you And you. Oh, and you!")

Go on and give it a listen, you rascal, you. 💋

When I'm taking sips
From your tasty lips
Mmmm The honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

Sunday :

A story among radio fans tells how got fired from WLW Cincinnati for getting caught playing one of his own numbers on the "Moon River" pipe organ. Moon River was a revered sleepy-time poems-and-music show, and the organ was sacrosanct, meaning Fats committed heresy against saccharin.

Who knows if that story's legit, but you really want it to be.
