I've got the tune on "Remembering Clancy" by Bob Schulz and His Frisco
Jazz Band, Stomp Off CD1349. The liner notes (written by Wayne Jones, the
drummer on the CD, in November, 1999) say, "Clancy (Hayes) took credit for
'Broken Promises,' but it was entirely written by his sometime
collaborator Daphne King, who conceived it as a country-western song and
gave us teh pretty little verse that Bob (Schulz) sings here. Daphne lives
in Coos Bay, Oregon and, fit as a fiddle, comes down to the San Diego fest
at Thanksgiving to see us. We dedicate this version of 'Broken Promises,'
complete as written, to Daphne, with great affection and gratitude."

Hope this is helpful.
