About this song

Andy Albert, Marc Beeson and Wyatt Earp wrote the song, and Jake Owen was also offered it while going through his own marital breakdown. Albert said the writers built most of the lyrics by tossing jokes and phrases back and forth, then arranged the lines into something that made sense. Shelton put the song on hold in early 2015, months before he and Miranda Lambert announced their divorce, and Albert felt it rang true to him during that period.
