Ain't Misbehavin'
North Star Jazz Ensemble Lyrics

The lyrics to North Star Jazz Ensemble's version of "Ain't Misbehavin'" tell the story of a person who is alone, but still content in their solitude because they are saving their love for a specific person. The first verse sets the scene of being alone with no one to talk to or walk with, but the person is happy on their own. The second verse confirms that the person is not interested in anyone else and is only thinking of their love interest. The lines "It's just you I'm thinkin' of / Ain't misbehavin' / I'm savin' my love for you" convey a sense of loyalty and commitment.

The lyrics compare the singer to Jack Horner, a nursery rhyme character who sat in a corner eating a pie ("Like Jack Horner / In the corner / Don't go nowhere / What do I care?"). They are content to patiently wait for their love interest to come to them, and the anticipation of their kisses is worth the wait. The final lines of the song state that the person doesn't stay out late or go out much, preferring instead to be home listening to the radio, but they are still committed to saving their love for their special someone.

Overall, the lyrics to "Ain't Misbehavin'" convey a sense of devotion and patience in love. The singer is content to wait for their love interest and is not interested in anyone else. They are comfortable in their solitude and are dedicated to their commitment to their love interest.
