A funny (Western) Swing song on the subject of looking for something, although without necessarily finding it, is
Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, first recorded by the
Light Crust Doughboys in
1938. It's definitely a classic.

Or perhaps Lost and Found by Fats Waller & His Rhythm (1938)
and there's always I've Found a New Baby (a million versions)
