Charted at #18 on Billboard Hot 100 in February 1956. The Bonnie Sisters were not really sisters, but three nurses who worked together at Bellevue Hospital. The owner of their record label encouraged them to call themselves the Bonnie Sisters since sister groups were very popular at the time. This was their only record to chart on the Billboard charts, and after a few failed singles, they eventually went back to nursing. They performed on the Arthur Godfrey show, and Mickey Baker, the prominent guitarist, signed them to Rainbow Records. I have read that he is playing guitar on this record. The 1990 Johnny Depp movie, "Cry Baby" was named after this song, and a new version was used as the theme over the opening credits.

Written by Sylverster Hopkins and Fred Parris, and originally recorded by the Scarlets.

The other side of this single is "I Saw Mommy Cha Cha Cha with You Know Who".
