Billy Lee Ackerley, I NEED A ONE MAN WOMAN (I'M A ONE WOMAN MAN)

Bill
I NEED A ONE MAN WOMAN (I'M A ONE WOMAN MAN), was written by Billy Lee Ackerley on May 6,1986. It took about 30 minutes. He put it on his Space Age Cowboy album, in 1986. The album was recorded in Nashville with Bill Anderson's band, named "The Po Folks Band". The band often records with other country music stars, as they are very talented.
 Billy Lee Ackerley wrote, recorded, copyrighted, published, and produced the song and album.
 About a year later, Billy gave a copy of his Space Age Cowboy album to RCA Records, in Nashville. About 6 months after that, George Jones put out a re-written version of it on the RCA label. All with no credit or reimbursement to Billy Lee Ackerley.
 It was a hit song.
