"My Son Calls Another Man Daddy", which was issued as the B-side of the #1 single "Long Gone Lonesome Blues", was written by Jewell House, who hosted the Hayloft Jamboree and ran Jewell's Record Shop and Fun House in Texarkana.
[3][4] Like "Wedding Bells" and "I've Just Told Mama Goodbye", the song was filled with the kind of sentimentality that had made Roy Acuff, one of Hank's biggest musical influences, so popular in the South.
The song expresses the thoughts of a jailed man who loses his son, a traditional theme in country music.
[5] Williams attempted to record the song on March 2, 1949 in Nashville, but that version was deemed unsatisfactory.
David Allan Coe cut the song for his 1997 LP The Ghost of Hank Williams.
