[Verse]
I've met 'em short, met em tall,
Never thought I'd ever fall.
But say,...  I fell today
And listen...  Am I glad, am I glad?
It's the first real thrill I've ever had,
Now mister,...  Can't you see, there ain't no <???> of me.
[Chorus]

Dear Craig,
That last line on Annette Hanshaw's "My Baby Knows How" (1926.
Davis-Akst-Richman) is:

"Now mister, ...  Can't you see, there ain't no stuff on me."

I listened to a clean copy in addition to the one on the Red Hot Jazz site.
Kind regards,
Bill.
