Billboard magazine asked Dave Matthews if this is a "straight up love song." He replied: "Absolutely. [Lyrically] what this person is doing is a confession of all his sins, of everything that's wrong with him, whether it's alcoholism or whatever excess it is, or whether it's poverty. At the end, he finishes off remembering how much he loves this lady. I like that song a lot, I really like the way it bounces."

Matthews told Billboard that the banjo that can be heard on this song was played by "a friend of ours, Danny Barnes, he came out and played on a few tunes. He played on that and 'Cockadile' and also on 'Skworm.'"
