I AIN'T GONNA GIVE NOBODY NONE - Free Jazz Leadsheet

"i ain't gonna give nobody none," composed by Spencer Williams in the 1920s, is a humorous blues-inflected tune expressing independence and playful possessiveness. Its lyrics employ colloquial storytelling common to early jazz.

The first recording, made in New Orleans, featured Williams on piano with small-group accompaniment, emphasizing swing rhythm and call-and-response phrasing. Its melody is straightforward yet flexible, allowing performers to highlight improvisation.

Subsequent jazz and blues renditions continue to showcase the song's narrative charm, maintaining its accessibility for both vocalists and instrumental performers while celebrating its rhythmic groove.
