Brenda Mae Tarpley (born December 11, 1944), known as Brenda Lee, is an American performer and the top-charting solo female vocalist of the 1960s. She sang rockabilly, pop and country music, and had 47 US chart hits during the 1960s, and is ranked fourth in that decade surpassed only by Elvis Presley, the Beatles and Ray Charles. She is perhaps best known in the United States for her 1960 hit "I'm Sorry", and 1958's "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree", a United States holiday standard for more than 50 years.
At 4 ft 9 inches tall (approximately 145 cm), she received the nickname Little Miss Dynamite in 1957 after recording the song "Dynamite" and was one of the earliest pop stars to have a major contemporary international following.
Lee's popularity faded in the late 1960s as her voice matured, but she continued a successful recording career by returning to her roots as a country singer with a string of hits through the 1970s and 1980s. She is a member of the Rock and Roll, Country Music and Rockabilly Halls of Fame. She is also a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. Brenda currently lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
Brenda Lee is the second studio album by American pop and country artist Brenda Lee. The album was released August 1, 1960 on Decca Records and was produced by Owen Bradley. The album's second single "Sweet Nothin's" became Lee's first major hit single on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking within the Top 10. This was followed by the third single "I'm Sorry" released the following year that became her first single to top the Billboard Hot 100.
Brenda Lee was prepared in four separate sessions between 1958 and 1960 all at the Bradley Film and Recording Studio. The first session took place October 19, 1958, followed by a second session on August 13, 1959, which was then proceeded by a third session March 27, 1960. The final session took place one day later on March 28, 1960. Like her previous release, the album contained twelve tracks. Two tracks were stereo remakes of her earliest singles, her cover of Hank Williams's "Jambalaya", which was Lee's first single in 1956, and her 1957 single "Dynamite". The second track entitled "Weep No More Baby" was written by John D. Loudermilk and Marijohn Wilkin. The ninth track "That's All You Gotta Do" was written by country artist Jerry Reed, which was released as the B-side to Lee's 1960 single "I'm Sorry".
"Ballin' the Jack" (sometimes misspelled "Balling the Jack") is a popular song from 1913, written by Jim Burris with music by Chris Smith. It introduced a popular dance of the same name with "Folks in Georgia's 'bout to go insane." It became a ragtime, pop, and trad jazz standard, and has been recorded hundreds of times by many prominent artists. Around the same time the song came out, the expression "ballin' the jack" was used by railroad workers to mean "going at full speed." It i not clear whether the dance or railroad reference came first. The phrase has also been used to describe operating a jackhammer.
The song and dance were performed in For Me and My Gal, the 1942 movie starring Judy Garland and Gene Kelly. It was also performed by Danny Kaye in the 1951 movie On the Riviera, and Dean Martin in the 1951 movie That's My Boy. It also featured as the After Dinner song sung in the mock-horror 1986 movie Haunted Honeymoon performed by Gilda Radner and Dom DeLuise. Jimmy Jewel playing Cannonball Lee performed the song in the 1990 film The Krays.
This song & dance number is a great period piece from the golden age of Vaudeville just before World War I. The footage comes from For Me and My Gal (MGM, 1942), the first film Judy and Gene made together. The song was originally written in 1913 by Jim Burris (words) and Chris Smith (music).

Ballin' The Jack - Danny Kaye
A shortened version of the dance scene from Haunted Honeymoon. This would make a perfect mother-son dance at a wedding.
From coast to coast, From Canada to Mexico, They're doin' a new dance A tried-and-a-true dance That will sweep the land And you'll think it's so grand You'll have to learn how to do it So please don't boo woo it Coz we've got this little dance That's gonna rise to fame It's sure to put most any other dance to shame The turkey-trot, the bunny-hug, the tickley-toe Will be forgotten when we start to go! Mr Leader, won't you start the syncopation? And we'll begin our little demonstration... Now, first you put your two knees Close up tight. Then you sway it to the left Then you sway it to the right. Step around the floor kind of nice and light Then you twist around and twist around With all of your might. Stretch your lovin' arms straight out in spa...
Brenda Lee covered Ballin' the Jack on her first album entitled "Grandma, What Great Songs You Sang!" (Later renamed "Brenda Lee Sings Songs Everybody Knows") . She was a Judy Garland fan and I suspect this cover came about because the song was in "For me and My Gal" (1942) where Judy and Gene Kelly did this song. Chris Smith(1879-1949) composed the music and James Henry Burris (1876–1923) wrote the lyrics Well you put your two knees close up tight, And then you swing them to the left You swing them to the right. Step around the floor kind of nice and light. And then you twist around and Twist around with all your might. Spread your loving arms way out in space, Then you do the Eagle Rock with the style and grace. Swing your foot way round then you bring it back. That's what I call Ba...
Here is an early recording by Kid Ory on Exner label 78 rpm record. Kid Ory was popular in the late 'teens until the depression, then work was scarce for dixieland jazz players. He worked on his brothers chicken farm until the 1940's, then things picked up for him again in the music business. Some of his first recordings of that period were on Exner label records. This song was recorded Feb, 1945. Enjoy!

Oh when you come home late with hardest reason
When you kiss me like your hardest reason
Do I worry do I worry do I worry
And when the songs you sing are sad and lonely
When you sit at home forget to phone me
Do I worry do I worry do I worry
Where do you go when you're not with me
There's a look in your eyes I don't like to see
Why don't you hold me like you use to do
I got a whole lot of loving just for you
But when your loving lips don't taste the same
And when you call me someone else's name
Well do I worry do I worry yes I do
Where do you go when you're not with me....
Over you I worry over you
