"Don't" is a song recorded by Elvis Presley and released in 1958. Written and produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller,[1] it was Presley's eleventh number-one hit in the United States. "Don't" also peaked at number four on the R&B charts.[2] Billboard ranked the ballad[3] as the No. 3 song for 1958.
The song was included in the musical revue Smokey Joe's Cafe, as a medley with "Love Me", and cleverly used in the key scene of the 1993 film Dave, right at the moment the President of the United States (played by Kevin Kline), suffers a stroke while making love to a mistress, inside the White House.
