It was then famously covered by American country music artist Jeanne Pruett in February 1973 as the first single and title track from her album of the same name.

The song was Pruett's only Number One country hit, as well as her only chart entry on the Billboard Hot 100.

Writer John "Jack" Volinkaty said the idea came to him in 1970 while he was grocery shopping in Minneapolis.

The song was revolutionary for Country music at the time, for its open discussion of sex.

Because of the song's success, Pruett was invited to join the Grand Ole Opry.
