Origin of Jenkins Stage Name--------- Jenkins felt that his real name wasn't marketable, and he changed his show business name in 1957. (Harold Lloyd Jenkins would always remain his legal name, however). Looking at a road map, he spotted Conway, Arkansas and Twitty, Texas. Thus, he went with the professional name of "Conway Twitty".[citation needed]
Alternatively, Jenkins met a Richmond, VA, man named W. Conway Twitty Jr. through Jenkins' manager in a New York City restaurant. The manager served in the army with the real Conway Twitty. Later, the manager suggested to Jenkins that he take the name as his stage name because it had a ring to it. The Richmond Conway Twitty subsequently recorded the song, "What's in a Name But Trouble," in the mid-1960s, lamenting the loss of his name to Jenkins. The flip side of the 45 RPM record was "The Purple, Purple People Eater, Eater." (The more well known version of Purple People Eater, however, now having sold over 100,000,000 copies, was recorded by Sheb Wooley.)

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That you've been seen, oh runnin' 'round
I know that I should go but then
I just can't go, you win again
Oh this heart of mine will never see
Oh what everybody knew but me
Just trustin' you was my great sin
Oh this heart of mine will never see
Oh what everybody knew but me
Just trustin' you was my great sin
Well what can I do, you win again?

The song portrays the helplessness and self-blame that you feel when you realize that everybody else knew about your partner's infidelity, except you. The lyrics imply that your trust in your partner was your biggest mistake, and you lament over what you could have done to prevent this betrayal.
Your heart aches with the pain of realizing that you were the last to know, and despite the betrayal, you are unable to leave. The lyrics "I know that I should go but then, I just can't go, you win again" signify the struggle of wanting to leave but being unable to do so.
