This 1983 single saw Gilley returning to the R&B-inflected country sound that had fueled his earlier successes. It was a straightforward, radio-ready track that fit neatly into his established commercial niche.

Mickey Gilley was a career country and R&B singer from Mississippi. He was a cousin of Jerry Lee Lewis and one of the Southern artists who blended country and rockabilly sounds. In 1983, Gilley was still a major force in country music, continuing a string of chart-topping hits that began in the late 1970s.
