Ain't Misbehavin'
Mark O'Connor's Hot Swing Trio Lyrics

The song Ain't Misbehavin' by Mark O'Connor is a love song which talks about the singer's loyalty towards his loved one. The song opens with the singer saying that he has nobody to talk with or walk with, indicating that he might be going through a rough patch in his life. However, he goes on to assure his loved one that he is not "misbehavin," that is, he has not strayed away from her. In fact, he is "savin' his love" just for her.

He says that he knows for certain that the one he loves is the only person he is thinking of, and that he is done with flirtin'. By using the phrase "It's just you I'm thinkin' of," he emphasizes the depth of his love and how he is committed to her. He then likens himself to Jack Horner, who sits alone in the corner and doesn't go anywhere, but doesn't care because he knows that the kisses he will receive from his loved one will be worth waiting for.

The last two stanzas emphasize the singer's solitary lifestyle. He says that he doesn't stay out late or care to go out, but prefers to stay in with his radio. The repetition of the phrase "Ain't misbehavin'" throughout the song reinforces the singer's commitment to his loved one.
