[Dixielandjazz] Fw: (What Did I Do To Be So) Black and Blue

[Bob Romans]

Verse and choruses...ones I've never heard. Nancy
is right...Tommy told me that Waller had a white girl friend, and that he
wrote the song, and Andy Razaf put the lyics to it. Tommy sang it like no
one I've ever heard! It's a song that, the
way he sang it, would bring  tears to your eyes, and then sometimes at the
end, Tommy would say softly, almost in a whisper..."Fats Waller said
that..."
