Buddy Feyne, born Bernard Feinstein on June 9, 1912, in New York City, was a notable American lyricist during the swing era. He is best known for writing the lyrics to "Tuxedo Junction," which became a No. 1 hit on the Billboard chart in 1940 when recorded by Glenn Miller. He also penned the lyrics for "Jersey Bounce," a hit on the Cash Box Hit Parade in 1942, and "Jumpin' with Symphony Sid." His work has been recorded by a wide array of artists, including Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, and Nat King Cole.

Feyne grew up as the youngest son of immigrants Solomon and Sarah Feinstein. Influenced by his brother's friendship with Milton Berle, he changed his name to Buddy Feyne to avoid potential anti-Semitic barriers in the music industry. He worked at the Brill Building in New York, writing for Lewis Music Publishers, which was known for publishing "race music." His collaboration with black composers such as Erskine Hawkins and others was a significant part of his career.

During World War II, Feyne served in the 77th Infantry Division, earning a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart. He continued to write music for the Armed Forces Radio Service and produced shows for servicemen. After the war, he worked on radio and television productions, including "Rhythm School of the Air" and "The Bill Harrington Show."

Feyne was a member of the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) from 1940 and collaborated with various composers throughout his career. He passed away on December 10, 1998, in Los Angeles, California, leaving behind a legacy of influential swing-era music.
