His version of the song was the third single from it, spending fourteen weeks on the country charts and peaking at number 45 by January 1997.

In late September 2010, Universal Music Group Nashville announced that Josh Turner's version of the song would be the third single from his album Haywire.

Juli Thanki of Engine 145 thought that Turner's rendition of the song sounded like he was "phoning it in".
