Early "cheating" CW song. Wakely's daughter told of how her father attended a church service where the minister criticized the song as being degrading to public morals..And this was in 1949. Wakely never went back to that church again.

Your problem is that the song was just recently posted and so far has only 607 viewers. I don't know how old you are, but this is great music regardless of your age!

Based on the lack of comments to this posting, I must be really old or just love the old style country music. Thanks to Mom & Dad for bringing me up right.
