"Elvira" #72 5/14/1966

The Oak Ridge Boys turned this into a signature song of theirs in the 80's. Here's the original from Nashville songwriter Dallas Frazier. He wrote country classics like "If My Heart Had Windows" for George Jones, "All I Have To Offer You Is Me" for Charley Pride and "Beneath Still Waters" for Emmylou Harris, plus "Alley Oop," an early rock novelty record for the Hollywood Argyles. Dallas got out of music in the late 80's and is now a minister.
