The song was written by Survivor members Gary Smith, Frankie Sullivan and Jim Peterik, for their band to perform on their first album, Survivor. Producer Ron Nevison felt the song was not right for the record, and the rough mix was given to 38 Special's manager, Mark Spector.[citation needed] The band re-recorded the tune and became 38 Special's first hit.
