Everybody Loves My Baby

Enrico sent me an ad he found in a 1920s news paper from the song Everybody Loves My Baby. A well known tune that became a standard in the traditional jazz. The song was credited words and music by Jack Palmer and Spencer Williams, in 1924. The song was popularized by Ruth Etting

I jumped into my collection and found the following releases:

These are the lyrics in the Doris Day version, as she sung in the 1955 movie Love Me Or Leave Me:


Everybody loves my baby
but my baby don't love nobody but me nobody but me
Yes everybody wants my baby
but my baby don't want nobody but me
that's plain to see!
I'm his sweet Judy
and he is my loving man!
No time to do his duty
loves me like no other can!
Everybody loves my baby
but my baby don't love nobody but menobody but me
Everybody wants my baby
but my baby don't want nobody but me
that's plain to see!
Now when my baby kisses me
upon my rosy cheeks -
I just let those kisses be
don't wash my face for weeks!
Everybody loves my baby...
