Songfacts®:

  • In his teens Randy Travis battled substance abuse and as a result he could relate to this song. He told The Tennessean July 15, 2008: "I tell people it's an anti-drinking song if I ever heard one. It hit home for me because of what it was about. I could relate to it probably more than I ought to be able to relate to it, but my background is what it is and I've always been honest about that."
