It provided a 1972 top-ten country single for her. A tranquil, slow-tempo ballad, the song differed from many of Parton's other hits at the time, in that it was neither an upbeat, lilting country number, nor a nostalgic reminiscence of her rural childhood.

The song earned Parton a Grammy nomination for Best Country Vocal Performance, Female, at the 15th Annual Grammy Awards, losing to Donna Fargo's "The Happiest Girl in the Whole U.S.A."
