Cline sings about how she desperately wants a man that she really likes, the only problem is he has a girlfriend already. So what she decides to do is try to get through with him and in the end she says, "when I get through with you, you'll love me true, not Sue".

French singer Françoise Hardy covered the song in 1965 as "Quel mal y a-t-il à ça?"
