Originally titled "Seventeen", the song was apparently conceived by McCartney while driving home from a Beatles' concert in Southport, Lancashire as a modern take on the traditional song As I Roved Out, a version of Seventeen Come Sunday that he had heard in Liverpool in 1960. - Wiki
Conway Twitty recorded a version of "Mona Lisa" in February 1959, but planned to release it only as an album cut (on an EP and an LP by MGM Records). Nevertheless, it peaked at #5 in the UK Singles Chart in that year. - Wiki
Hmmm...

Interesting! You can certainly hear the similarities!!
It reminds me when Ringo commented in The Beatles Anthology that whenever he presented a song to the Beatles they would all laugh, because it would often sound to the other three Beatles like a popular song of the day!! LOL!
