Larry E. Williams, who wrote the track, had been working as a roadie for Neil Diamond. Diamond turned the song down and so apparently did Johnny Rivers. US singer Gene Cotton was the first to record the track. For the Bellamy Brother’s version, they used some members of Neil Diamond’s backing band on the recording.
