The

Background

The middle four bars start with the lyric "People talk and try to break us up. Well we know they don't understand", which is a direct lift from the 1960 Ray Charles song "Sticks And Stones".

Cash Box described it as a "sizzling rocker...that should move up the charts in jet -speed fashion.."[3]
