According to the book Whiskey Bottles and Brand New Cars: The Fast Life and Sudden Death of Lynyrd Skynyrd by Mark Ribowsky, the genesis for the song came from a time when Gary Rossington was in jail with Van Zant and he asked him how many times he'd been arrested, to which Van Zant answered, "11."
