It was released as a single in the United States on December 15, 1956.[1] The first verse of the song is sung in a man's voice, the second in a girl's voice, and the third in a frog's voice. In the United States, the song reached no. 3 on one of the Billboard R&B charts[2][3] and no. 20 on the Billboard pop chart, the Top 100.[1][3][4] HistoryClarence Henry used his trademark croak to improvise the song "Ain't Got No Home" one night in 1955. Chess Records' A&R man Paul Gayten heard the song, and had Henry record it in Cosimo Matassa's studio in September 1956. Initially promoted by local DJ Poppa Stoppa, the song eventually rose to number 3 on the national R&B chart and number 20 on the US pop chart.[5] The gimmick earned Henry his nickname of "Frogman" and jump-started a career that endures to this day.[6] The song was the first big hit released on the Chess subsidiary Argo Records.
