"Walk Right Back" is a 1961 song by Sonny Curtis that was recorded by The Everly Brothers, and went to No.
In an interview he did with Jim Liddane of the International Songwriters Association, Sonny Curtis said about the song:[3] Well, I wrote most of that one Sunday afternoon, while I was doing my basic training in California, just after I went in the army, although I had the guitar riff for a while, and then, Lady Luck stepped in.
Anyway, for firing expert, they gave me a three-day pass, and I went straight down to Hollywood, and the Crickets were there, and so were Don and Phil, who were doing some acting classes for movies – they had just signed for Warner Brothers.
Anyway, I went back to base, and wrote a second verse, and put it in the mail to them, and next morning, I got a letter from J.I.
(It goes: These eyes of mine that gave you loving glances once before, change to shades of cloudy gray.
