The single stayed at number one for two weeks and spent a total of eleven weeks within the top 40. It is an answer song to Tammy Wynette's Stand By Your Man. .

According to Milsap, the song was "almost" a lawsuit because the opening piano melody, played by session musician Hargus "Pig" Robbins, sounded similar to Robbins' intro on "Behind Closed Doors".
