[1] It was written by Black with Hayden Nicholas and Shake Russell.
Critical reception
An uncredited review in Time called it "a classic hard-times complaint about the rent, the banker at the door, and a roof that is crumbling". [2] The Orlando Sentinel called it "a humorous workingman's lament about such everyday woes as high rent and car trouble. The arrangement is high-siprited Texas swing, but the song has a dark undertone with double-edged lines such as 'Well, I haven't bought the farm yet, but I'm not that far behind.'" [3] The song has a western swing accompaniment. [4]
