Bass singer Ray Walker, of the gospel vocal group The Jordanaires (who also worked as Presley's backing vocalists for much of his career), is featured in the song, singing the repeated phrase in a deep voice, in order to represent the devil: "Oh, yes, you are," before the song's fade. The recording appeared on the 1968 RCA Victor compilation "Elvis' Gold Records  Volume 4". Other versions. A cover version by Trisha Yearwood appears on the "Honeymoon in Vegas" soundtrack, which consists mainly of covers of Presley songs.
