But we\u2019ll do it anyway. Margaret Whiting and Jimmy Wakely racked up 17 weeks at No. 1 with \u201cSlipping Around\u201d in 1949. In 1962, Carl and Pearl Butler held the high ground for 11 weeks with \u201cDon\u2019t Let Me Cross Over.\u201d The Browns (Jim Ed, Maxine and Bonnie) did 10 weeks with \u201cThe Three Bells\u201d in 1959. The Davis Sisters had the catbird seat for eight weeks in 1953 via \u201cI Forgot More Than You\u2019ll Ever Know,\u201d as did Connie Smith with \u201cOnce a Day\u201d in 1964.<\/p>\n<div class=\"deferred_content\"> Embedded from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g5n1zXkB5xw?feature=oembed\">www.youtube.com<\/a>. <noscript class=\"deferred_content\" data-deferred-info=\"{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;iframe&quot;}\"> <iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g5n1zXkB5xw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen>\t<\/iframe><\/noscript>\n<\/div>\n<p>There are four new songs eyeing Morris\u2019 choice real estate this week.
