Does anyone know the name of the tune used as the theme for Another Thin Man with William Powell and Myrna Loy?

Watching the boxed set tonight and can't find the name of the tune and its so familiar it's driving me nuts lol.

Thanks fellow loungers

There was a bouncy little German song set to the same tune, called Wochenend und Sonnenschein, recorded by The Comedian Harmonists around 1930. I'm sure several versions are still available on You Tube, but being an aging Luddite I have no idea how to link to it! Apologies for that!

That German version was shown just the other day on a TV channel we have in the U.S. called 'Classic Arts Showcase' (channel 9406 on Dish Network) and it was awesome!.......a little surreal, given the dates, but awesome anyway!
