Songfacts®:

• This is the second single from Country music singer Lee Ann Womack's sixth studio album, Call Me Crazy. The song peaked at #39 on the Country chart.
• The song was penned by American Country singer-songwriter, and actor, Waylon Payne. He is best known to many for portraying Jerry Lee Lewis in the 2005 Oscar-winning Johnny Cash biopic, Walk The Line. Payne explained that he wrote the song at a Los Angeles bar: "I was out taking a walk and the song was weighing heavy on me, so I ducked into this bar called Numbers and wrote the song. I later found out that the bar is a prostitute bar."
• Call Me Crazy has a dark vibe, with plenty of drinking and love lost, but Womack told Billboard magazine it wasn't intentional: "I try to go through the whole process with blinders on and just cut songs that really work for me. Sometimes it ends up being different when I don't even realize it's different," she said. "It probably seems dark compared to what's been made around here the last couple years. I don't think it's dark compared to Hank Williams or George Jones. It's what I gravitate toward-songs that make you feel something."
