This version did not chart but
In 1949, it was a # 1 for Margaret Whiting and Jimmy Wakely
Competing version by Ernest Tubb hit #17.
Seems I always hafta slip around to be with you, my dear
Slippin' around, afraid we might be found
I know I can't forget you and I gotta have you near
But we just hafta slip around and live in constant fear
Oh, you're tied up with someone else
And I'm all tied up, too
I know I made mistakes, dear
But I'm so in love with you
I hope someday I'll find a way to bring you back to me
Then I won't hafta slip around to have your company
REPEAT ALL
