NOTHIN' From the Broadway Revue "A Night In Spain" (1927) (Lou Handman / Ray Turk) Marion Harris (feat. in the Broadway Production) - 1927 Original Memphis Five (vocal: Annette Hanshaw) - 1927 Nat Shilkret & The Victor Orch. (vocal: Gene Austin) - 1927 For a year or more I've tried to get names To use as pet names for the one whom I adore Though it may seem funny now, I've got one And it is not one that you've ever heard before I call her Nothin', because she's nothin' I mean she's nothin' but a sweet, sweet child And she does nothin', no, she does nothin' Well, she does nothin' else but drive me wild My little Nothin' may mean nothin', nothin' to you But if you try to steal my Nothin', you'll have somethin' to do I love my Nothin', she's good for nothin' She's good for nothin' but lovin' me I'm afraid the name I gave my sweet one Is such a neat one that you'll all be using it If your sweetie's hand is your ambition Here's my permission, 'cause with mine it made a hit I call her Nothin', because she's nothin' I mean she's nothin' but a sweet, sweet child And she does nothin', no, she does nothin' Well, she does nothin' else but drive me wild My little Nothin' may mean nothin', nothin' to you But if you try to steal my Nothin' you'll have somethin' to do I love my Nothin', she's good for nothin' She's good for nothin' but lovin' me ******************** As recorded by ANNETTE HANSHAW with the Original Memphis Five (Red Nichols, Miff Mole, Frank Signorelli, Ray Baudec, George Bohn): I call him Nothin', because he's nothin' I mean he's nothin' but a sweet, sweet child And he does nothin', no, he does nothin' Well, he does nothin' else but drive me wild My little Nothin' may mean nothin', nothin' to you But if you try to steal my Nothin', you'll have somethin' to do I love my Nothin', 'cause he means nothin' No, he means nothin' but joy to me (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - March 2018)
