Ed, the one on top is the original. Duke used that color label from 1952-61. The bottom label was used starting about mid-1961.

I had always believed that the version of this song without the female vocal overdubs was the original - just like my single. Until I came across another single with the same numbers (136 on the left side, ACA 2801 at bottom. The only difference on the label is that the version w/o overdubs says "Houston, Texas" on the right side. The other one has nothing and they are both brown & yellow. Were there two 45 versions of this song?

Brown & Yellow label is an original pressing. Orange & Yellow is a later pressing. Mono only. Recorded at ACA Studios in Houston, TX. Original lacquers mastered there.
