Little Sister
Words and Music: Doc Pomus/Mort Shuman Lyrics: Well, I dated your big sister And took her to a show I went for some candy Along came Jim Dandy And they snuck right out of the door Ev'ry time I see your sister Well she's got somebody new She's mean and she's evil Like that old Boll Weevil Guess I'll try my luck with you Well, I used to pull your pigtails And pinch your turned-up nose But you been a growin' And baby, it's been showin' From your head down to your toes Little sister, don't you Little sister, don't you Little sister, don't you kiss me once or twice Then say it's very nice And then you run Little sister, don't you Do what your big sister done Recording Details: Date: June 25,1961 Studio: RCA Studio B (Nashville, Tennessee) Musicians: Guitar: Scotty Moore Guitar: Hank Garland Guitar: Neil Matthews Bass: Bob Moore Drums D.J. Fontanna Drums: Buddy Harman Piano: Floyd Cramer Claves: Boots Randolph Vocals: The Jordanaires Vocals: Millie Kirkham Producer: Steve Sholes Master Take: 4 Appears On: Single (B-Side to "Marie's The Name of His Latest Flame - Released 1961) Elvis' Gold Records Volume 3 (LP Released 1963 - Also Available on CD) From Nashville To Memphis The Essential 60's Masters (CD Released 1993) Something For Everybody (Bonus Track on 1999 CD Release & FTD CD Release) The Essential Elvis Presley (CD Release 2007) This song as well as a number of outtakes appears on far more compliation CD's than those referenced above.

LITTLE SISTER is a great track. I think the guitar influenced CCR's GREEN RIVER in 1969.
