My brother in law used to do a song I'm
trying to figure out. All I can recall is
the line "Now they call me a playboy".
I think this was the starting line.
Any help?...Thanks

They call me a playboy,When I'm makin my rounds,out doin the night life, in each night spot in town.tho I never show it ,My hearts breakin in two. they call me a playboy, but I'm just lonely for you...........I once had a real love,,that was when I had you..and I'll never fell love with somebody new....this false front I'm wearin,,is just to cover my blues,,they call me a playboy,,But i'm just lonely for you....

The songwriter credits belong to Bob Morris-Eddie Miller.

Bruce, there is a wonderful 10 CD collection of Wynn's recordings called Wishful Thinking. You'll find more than one version of "Playboy."

Wasn't Ralph Mooney the steel player on this one. I Believe Tom Brumley was on Buck's version and I can't remember who was on Tony Booths.

There is a version of it on Buck's album (if memory serves me correctly) "I Don't Care".

A great version of the song is on "Bakersfield bound" by Chris Hillman and Herb Pedersen.Excellent steel troughout the CD by the one and only J.D.Maness!Every steel player or fan should have it.
Looking forward to hearing J.D. live at the Convention.

Roger Miller also did a version of TCMAP, probably in the 50s or 60s.
