I can not verify this, as it came from an inquiry I made on another forum. I hope it is correct and helps the person looking for the record.
The song you seek is a Webb Pierce song, who else, and is on his Boxed Set Webb Pierce, The Wondering Boy most likely available thuu the Ernest Tubb Record Shop and also Collector's Choice Music, www.ccmusic.com. The Song Title is ENGLISH SWEETHEART.
