From the 1927 musical Funny Face. Here's the original version in Eb.
bernard clifton does the intro and then the whole song
then adele astaire (fred's older sister) does the same, & they sing a little harmony at the end
Ella Fitzgerald does it in Bb with the 2nd intro, and introduces some new lyrics,
which I put after the 2nd intro. 1959.

I also used a couple of Barney Kessel licks from the 1955 Julie London version.
Pulling all of Barney's licks on "Easy Street" wore me out, I ain't doin' that again.
