Doggin' Around

"Doggin' Around" is a 1960 song written by Paul Benton Tarnopol and originally performed by Jackie Wilson. Reaching both the R&B and the pop singles charts in the U.S., "Doggin' Around" hit number one on the Hot R&B Sides chart for three weeks and peaked at number fifteen on the Billboard Hot 100. The B-side of the single was "Night", based on the aria "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice" from the opera Samson and Delilah, by Saint-Saëns; it made the top five on the R&B and pop charts.[1]

Doggin' Around is also the title of a 1994 BBC Screen One production written by Alan Plater and was later used as the title of Plater's autobiography.
