Louis Jordan - Is You Is Or Is You Ain't (My Baby)

" Ernie Royal (tp) Jimmy Cleveland (tb) Louis Jordan (as, vo) Sam "The Man" Taylor (ts) Budd Johnson (ts, bars) Ernie Hayes (p) Mickey Baker (g) Wendell Marshall (b) Charlie Persip (d) Quincy Jones (arr, dir)
NYC, October 22, 1956"

"I got a gal who's always late
Any time we have a date
But I love her
Yes I love her

I'm gonna walk right up to her gate
And see if I can get it straight
'Cause I want her
I'm gonna ask her

Is you is or is you ain't my baby?
The way you're actin' lately makes me doubt
Yous is still my baby-baby
Seems my flame in your heart's done gone out

A woman is a creature that has always been strange
Just when you're sure of one
You find she's gone and made a change

Is you is or is you ain't my baby
Maybe baby's found somebody new
Or is my baby still my baby true?

Is you is or is you ain't my baby
Maybe baby's found somebody new
Or is my baby still my baby true?"

    This is from the 1956 Mercury sessions produced by Quincy Jones - note the echo and more prominent guitar.

    They've been showing Tom and Jerry reruns on Cartoon Network for as long as I can remember. So, he's probably not that old

    This is the original version written by Louis Jordan in the 1940's. Anything else you see is an elaboration of the original. I have the original sheet music as a reference. Thx
