Ain’t-Cha Glad
I heard this tune from 1933 first on one of the earliest records I bought, “King of the Blues Trombone” with Jack Teagarden. It is written by the iconic songwriter couple Fats Waller and Andy Razaf. And here’s my recording of it.
Ain't-cha glad we were mated for each other?
Ain't-cha glad that we waited for each other?
We agree, constantly.
Life is just a symphony of perfect harmony
Ain't-cha glad how we get along together?
Ain't-cha glad we can laugh at “stormy weather”?
Folks declare, “What a pair!”
They can see we're happy, ain't-cha glad?
Just like two lovers on picture covers,
in spite of sun or rain,
We find romance,
Ev'ry street we meet is lovers lane,
Ain't-cha glad that our kisses keep their flavor?
Ain't-cha glad ev'rything is in our favor?
Ev'ry day we can say
ev'rything is rosy, Aint'-cha glad?
