"Always Late (with Your Kisses)" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Lefty Frizzell. It was the fifth single released from his 1951/1952 album Listen to Lefty. It peaked at number one in 1951 and became his fourth release to hit the top.

Recording and composition

During early 1951, Lefty Frizzell was enjoying the success followed by his hit debut, "If You've Got the Money (I've Got the Time)". By this time, Frizzell and Hank Williams were the biggest names in country music. Frizzell met for another session on May 24, which capped off a single. "Always Late (With Your Kisses)" with the B-side "Mom and Dad's Waltz" was released in July and in August the single rose to the number one slot on the US Country chart.

"Mom and Dad's Waltz" peaked at number two for eight weeks on the country chart.[1] The song has been covered by many different artists, most credibly, long-time Lefty Frizzell friend, George Jones, who was influenced by Frizzell. He covered the song in 1973 on his album, Nothing Ever Hurt Me (Half As Bad as Losing You).
