You Run Your Mouth, I’ll Run My Business (studio, 1940-04-11: Victor matrix BS-048779-2, alternate take)
~ Recording by Fats Waller and His Rhythm
Annotation
Alternate take 2 is longer than the master, and can be distinguished by Waller's vocal improvisations. In this version, he begins the second verse "You run your mouth and I'll run my business, brother", without the ad lib of the master take ("You run your mouth and I'll get my mind together and I'll run my business, brother").
Take numbers are reversed in some discographies; this numbering is confirmed by Waller discographer Stephen Taylor.
