Skeeter Davis - He'll Have To Stay

Here's The Answer (1961)

Skeeter Davis with the answer song to Jim Reeves "He'll Have To Go". Written by Charles Grean, Joe Allison, Audrey Allison.

Lyric:
I am glad you finally called me on the phone
I've been waiting here tonight but not alone
You broke the date that we had made just yesterday
Now there's someone else who's here he'll have to stay

I have found another love I know is true
And he holds me much more tenderly than you
Loving you's not worth the price I have to pay
Someone else is in your place he'll have to stay

Once I loved you with all my heart but now I must say no
You broke my heart too many times so now you'll have to go

I can't hear the jukebox playing soft and low
And you're out again with someone else I know
My love was blind I'm not your kind that's all I say
So you can hang up I'm in his arms he'll have to stay

@gravesj11 Gentleman Jim was the first to sing this, in 1959. This version was intended to be more or less a joke.

Here's The Answer featured the original versions plus Skeeter's answers. It helped that the original artists also recorded for RCA.
