Been a Kitty Wells fan/lover since I was a teen in the 50's. Even tho I knew wasn't her real name, I never knew it came from this song that I'd never heard of before now. Thank you, it's beautiful. . . . Neil N.
Thanks for the song and sharing the info Lilly! Now you will have to agree, "Kitty Wells" is a MUCH better stage name than "Muriel (Deason) Wright", Kitty's REAL name! LOL! This is going right into my Kitty Playlist. THANKS! Mike
Okay, Mike, "Kitty" sounds a little better (by the way, I like "Muriel") but what name ever, Kitty is Kitty and I believe, even when her name would be "XYZ", we would still love her and her singing.
Look up the version by Bradley Kincaid for a truer rendition!

Johny Wright told me this was about a rich black doctor whose wife had passed away and Sweet Kitty Wells was his maid whom he loved.

Find the original version and audio of this song at "Wolf Folklore Collection" :Kitty Wells. I like the Billy Grammar version better.

Thanks Lilly for posting and I learned something today. I did not know her real name until I read what MoJo and Marie wrote.
