In this song, Elvis sings about how he was hurt by a girl who showed interest in him and then left for another guy. This girl has a little sister, and now he is taking an interest in her, but hopes she doesn't leave him the same way.
This was written by the Brill Building songwriters Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman. They also wrote the 1959 hit "A Teenager In Love," which also deals with a young man who is baffled by women.
This was released as a single with another Doc Pomus / Mort Shuman composition: "(Marie's The Name) His Latest Flame," which made #4 US on September 18, 1961, two weeks before "Little Sister" peaked at #5. Although "Marie" was the bigger chart hit, "Little Sister" had a lot more staying power, becoming one of Elvis' classics.
Artists to cover this song include Ry Cooder, Link Wray and Jimmy Barnes. Dwight Yoakam released his version in 1987, taking it to #7 on the Country chart.
