Songfacts®:

• INDIANOLA frontman Owen Beverly considers this song a "sequel or remake" of B.B. King's version of "Every Day I Have The Blues." It finds him living a hardscrabble life with a mean woman and nothing to lose. That will give you the blues, all right.
• Owen Beverly explained to Songfacts: "This was another song from that batch of INDIANOLA songs where I'm experimenting with early rock n' roll or the boogie-woogie style, but adding modern chord progressions and production style."
• INDIANOLA had been releasing music since 2016, but didn't issue an album until 2019 with Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye, which includes this track. They're an indie act, with suits Beverly fine. He was courted by major labels after releasing his debut EP in 2003, but never signed on the dotted line.
  
  "I'm going to write whatever I feel," Beverly told Songfacts in 2022. "It doesn't matter if nobody likes it because how will that change anything? This thing I do now, I want to put everything I have into it. That's how desperate I am to keep at it. If you never get to the top of the mountain, then you never know how much further there is to go. I've been nothing but blessed with all the wonderful artists I've worked with, all the people that have taken me under their wings, all the people that cheer-leaded my cause. It has not been in vain. I love everything about all the work I have done. I have no regrets."
