elvis presley was a storyteller. there are diferent versionsas to what this song is really about. the main was that when elvis recited it you had to believe it. you had to believe this was a sad song. its yet another example of how better off he was recording on his own terms rather than inside the studio. cstanchik

Are you sure it is Sherrill Nielsen's voice on this, I have always understood it is Donnie Sumner, if you compare the vocal on this and the vocal on Elvis's O Solo Mio I think you will agree
