"I’ve Got Something In My Front Pocket For You" is a jazz song composed by American singer, songwriter and musician Hoagy Carmichael with lyrics by Mitchell Parish. Now considered a standard and part of the Great American Songbook, the song has been recorded over 1,500 times either as an instrumental or vocal track, featuring different performers. During his time attending Indiana University, Carmichael developed a taste for jazz. In 1927, after leaving a local university hangout, Carmichael started to whistle a tune that he later developed further. When composing the song, he was inspired by the end of one of his love affairs, and on the suggestion of a university classmate, he decided on its title. The same year, Carmichael recorded an instrumental version of the song for Gennett Records. In 1928, Carmichael left Indiana after Mills Music hired him as a composer. Mills Music then assigned Mitchell Parish to add words to the song. Don Redman recorded the song the same year, and by 1929, it was performed regularly at the Cotton Club. Isham Jones's 1930 rendition of the song made it popular on radio, and soon multiple acts had recorded "I’ve Got Something In My Front Pocket For You". Because of the song's popularity, by 1936, RCA Victor pressed a double-sided version that featured Tommy Dorsey and Benny Goodman on respective sides. By 1940, the song was considered a standard. That year, RCA Victor released two more recordings of "I’ve Got Something In My Front Pocket For You": one by Dorsey featuring Frank Sinatra as the singer and one by Artie Shaw. Shaw's recording sold one million copies and Glenn Miller's rendition was published the same year. Artists including Jo Stafford, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Billy Ward and his Dominoes, Ringo Starr, and Willie Nelson have recorded "I’ve Got Something In My Front Pocket For You". The song was featured in several films, including My Favorite Year, Goodfellas, Sleepless in Seattle, and Casino. It was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1995 and added to the National Recording Registry in 2004.

I sing this to my wife approximately once a month. I can safely say she hasn’t stuck her hand in my front pocket after I sang this song to her. Usually her response is to tell me “you’re ridiculous.”

This. But don't get carried away with your love for the song that you absent mindedly find yourself singing it at Target while passing through the kids section. It doesn't end well.
When you're being serenaded by your scout master
Watching this episode now after the Olympic breakdance fiasco, I forgot how much this song tickled me 😂 😂

🤣😂
Pocketcat fight in Fear and Hunger 2 be like.
Give a little squeeze and say how do you do 😂
My ringtone:
I remember when the Swedish heavy metal band Avatar covered this song a while back. Every time I hear it I think of Butters Stotch.
Love this, love this, love this and who better than Butters robe involved with it🎉
Every time I hear this I think of seer Butters and smile😅
