Already released as by Billy The Kid, KAPP K-261X (probably) in January 1959 because of the Billboard revue on Monday, Feb.2, 1959. Billy The Kid recorded this song on 12 January 1959 (probably); it was released on 2 February 1959 on Kapp K-261X with the song "I Hardly Know Me" on the B-side. This seems to be the only record ever made by this mysterious individual. Nobody seems to know anything about this particular Billy The Kid! Added in the meantime
Little David (also a Schroeder, so perhaps he was writer Aaron Schroeder's son) also recorded the number in 1959 for US release and somehow or other, the relatively new British excuse for a rock'n'roller, Cliff Richard, also got hold of the number and recorded it a little later. Elvis Presley recorded it in 1959 :
