Johnny Mercer was born 110 years ago today.  He's best known as a lyricist, though he occasionally wrote the tune as well.  He wrote hundreds of song, mostly for movies and Tin Pan Alley, occasionally for Broadway.  He could write witty, he could write poetic, and he knew how to make it sound natural.
