Floyd Huddleston (August 19, 1918 - September 27, 1991) was an American songwriter, screenwriter, and television producer.
He joined ASCAP in 1949, and his popular-song compositions include "Highway to Love", "You Can't Do Wrong Doin' Right", "Of All Things", "He's Just My Kind", "Just For Laughs", and "You Started Something". For Disney, he wrote the music for "Everybody Wants to Be a Cat" from The Aristocats and the lyrics for "Love" from Robin Hood. He also co-wrote the song "Jungle Fever" from the album More Jungle Book.
From 1965 until his death, he was married to Nancy Adams (who sang his song "Love" as Maid Marian's singing voice), with whom he had only one child.
