It's available on several of the collections on CD of Rudy Vallee songs,
where it is known as "Kitty from Kansas City." The actual name of the song
is "Kansas City Kitty," written in 1929 by Walter Donaldson ("Yes, Sir,
That's My Baby," "My Mammy").
Of more interest to me, after wallowing in Ken Burns' bloated "Jazz" for a
couple of weeks, is Kansas City Kitty, the blues singer from the 1920s.
