[78-L] Name that tune

[David Lennick]

Introduced as instrumental by Tommy Dorsey and his Orchestra under the title 
"Dancing With You". Vocal version also introduced by Dorsey, vocal by Jack 
Leonard. Words by Bud Green. This from Nat Shapiro's Popular Music.

So, yeah, sorta..no reference to Dancing With You having lyrics.
