Dance Album Of Carl Perkins, 1957
Written by Rex Griffin, 1936
Obviously, I know this song from the 1965 Beatles cover from Beatles For Sale. They credited it to Perkins, but pace Wikipedia, Perkins lifted it from one Rex Griffin, who recorded basically the same song in 1936. Perkins gave it a rockabilly arrangement and added a verse, but it's still the same song. How can you not love a song that starts, "Well they took some honey from a tree / Dressed it up and they called it me"?
