Elvis Presley’s mainstream version of Thornton’s only number one hit in 1956 so eclipsed her orginal as to obscure her achievement. Moreover, Thornton received only $500 for her recording and received no royalties from later re-issues. The line “Bow wow to you, too,” with which she ended subsequent performances of the song, was her retort to Presley’s success with her material.”—Ruth M.
