The song was another track on the personal album that did not discuss the demise of his first marriage.
Instead of Anna Gaye, the song talked of the other woman in Marvin's life.
Described in "You Can Leave, but It's Going to Cost You" as "that young girl", she was Janis Hunter, whom Gaye had married.
But as irony would have it, by the time of the album's release, Marvin and Janis' relationship was failing.
By the end of the album's promotion, Janis had split from the singer after nearly two years as a married couple.
