Hill & Range Publishing shoved Presley a cleaned-up version. "One night of sin is what I'm paying for" became "One night with you is what I'm praying for". As a result, many more radio stations could include it on their playlists. His untouched version wasn't released until 1985 (lp Reconsider Baby).
