Currington explained to AOL why he recorded this Country-Rock number, which was written by Bobby Braddock and Troy Jones. Said Currington: "Just the title alone, when I was pitched this song, I was sure at that point that I was going to record it, I didn't care how it sounded. I just loved the title. I couldn't wait to put it in my truck and listen to it. I remember when I popped it in, and from the first verse to the first chorus, it just put a big smile on my face. I was like, 'You know, I've been waiting on a song like this for a long time.' I was just thankful that they sent it my way. I just got addicted to the song. I found myself wanting to listen to this song over and over. Carson Chamberlain - the producer I was working with - had heard it too, and we were both in agreement that this had to go on the album so that's kinda how this song got chosen. It's just a words-of-wisdom kind of song. It's got a laid-back melody that just puts you in that happy zone."

This was Currington's third #1 on the Hot Country SongsChart. His previous chart-toppers were "Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right" in December 2005-January 2006 and "Good Directions" in May and June 2007.

Currington finishes off this song with a whistle solo that makes one wonder if he'd been listening to Guns 'n' Roses' "Patience."

The first time Currington heard this song, he wanted to record it. However when he inquired he was told to get into line as a number of A-list artists including George Strait, Kenny Chesney and Alan Jackson were also interested. He explained to the Associated Press: "My friend said, 'That song has already been recorded and 10 people are waiting in line who want to record it, so don't even worry about it." A month later, Currington enquired about the song one last time. His persistence paid off as this time he was given the green light to record it.
