Laura (What's He Got That I Ain't Got)" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music singer Leon Ashley. Recorded in 1967 and released on his own Ashley Records label, the song was his only No. 1 single that September. Frankie Laine and Brook Benton took cover versions to the pop and Adult Contemporary charts that year, while Claude King, Marty Robbins and Kenny Rogers charted their own versions on the country charts.

The song reached in 1967 for Leon Ashley. The song, to my knowledge has never appeared on CD by Marty. I should imagine that this recording is not that well known, but nevertheless it's a great song sung by one of the greatest singers of all time. I take it to mean he’s got his weapon pointed at his unfaithful wife and the dirt bag that’s also in the motel room where he found the car he bought for her in the parking lot. 10 months ago. An awesome version of this song.

Each refrain calls Laura out, saying he is aware that she is having an affair with another man The husband demands to know "what's he got that I ain't got," bemoaning the fact that it "must be something I was born without" Just before each refrain, he warns that he has grown angry and gone crazy as a result of this  . "Marty Robbins – Chart history" Billboard Hot Country Songs for Marty Robbins. "Kenny Rogers – Chart history" Billboard Hot Country Songs for Kenny Rogers.

Main genre: Country, Folk. Is a cover of 1 song. Laura (What's He Got That I Ain't Got) by Leon Ashley (1967).

I wonder what the composer was thinking - perhaps it was meant to be deliberately ambiguous. No question that Frankie Laine was one of the 20th century's musical giants. so (to me) it's the "original" version "I'm Gonna Be Strong", although I believe that Laine's version actually pre-dated Pitney's version by several months.
