Who Sing "You Ain't Nothin' But A Hound Dog?"

"Hound Dog" was written by the great songwriters Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, who also wrote "Smokey Joe's Cafe," "I'm a Woman" and loads of classic songs from the 1950s and 1960s.

"Hound Dog" was originally performed by a blue singer named Big Mama Thornton. Her version inspired Rufus Thomas to record a virtually identical song called "Bear Cat."

"Hound Dog" was later recorded by Freddie Bell and the Bellboys. THEIR version is the one that Elvis Presley modelled his version after.

Hope this helps!

The original singer is Willa Mae ("Big Mama")
