This is the version of Two Doors Down that originally was included on all pressings of Here You Come Again that were released when the album came out back in 1977, but that all changed with any release of the album since 1978 because Zella Lehr released a cover version that was a top ten U.S. country hit before Dolly could even release hers as the album's second single in February 1978, on top of the album’s title track became a much bigger pop hit than Parton had anticipated, not wanting to compete with Lehr's country version of the song, and wanting to capitalize on her newfound pop success, she rerecorded a looser, pop-oriented version of the song with a slight disco flavouring, omitting the first verse, and including an upbeat "sing-along" bridge.
The new 1978 version got released on a double-A-sided 7 inch single with the other side being "It's All Wrong, but It's All Right" intended for country airplay, and "Two Doors Down" intended for the pop airplay. The single topped the U.S. country charts, and was a top-20 pop hit for Parton, and went on to be one of her most popular hits.

Dolly chose to swap the previous version on all subsequent pressings of Here You Come Again to now have the 1978 rerecording. Since then the original 1977 Two Doors Down never got officially included even as a bonus track when the album came out on CD, digital, and streaming, minus the 3-CD compilation Legendary Dolly Parton that came out in Australia back in 2000.

The story makes sense with the first verse in there telling the listener context as to why she's "crying and feeling sorry"
