"is you is or is you ain't my baby"

The tune is in vol 2 of the old fake book. If you fool around with it you
can put in progressions like:

| fm7 / dm7b5 / | gm7b5 / c7 / |

which sound great. The song is similar to "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got
that swing" by Duke Ellington.
I heard John Handy play "is you is or is you ain't my baby" with 3 girls who
sang and played violins.
