A strong, driving R&B tune showcasing the group's signature vocal interplay and sophisticated arrangement, "Doggone Right" was a solid, if not chart-topping, single for the veteran Motown act.

• It was released as a 7-inch vinyl single with "Don't Let It End This Way" as the B-side.

The Miracles were a foundational vocal group from Detroit, Michigan, central to the Motown Records sound and famous for Smokey Robinson's songwriting and lead vocals. At the time of "Doggone Right," the group had already enjoyed a decade of hits, with Robinson preparing to step down from his day-to-day A&R duties at Motown.
