According to Billboard , Davis wrote the song during a session with songwriters Ryan Hurd and Matt Dragstrem. Davis told the publication he was holding a conversation about the changes that had ensued in his life since his marriage, and provided the title "What My World Spins Around" to the other two. They then assembled a demo, which they took to Davis's producer, Paul DiGiovanni. DiGiovanni noted that he had difficulty coming up with a sound for the song due to it using only two chords. One production choice he made was to use a second guitar effect atop the guitar work of session musician Derek Wells to create a tremolo effect. [1] Jeremy Chua of Taste of Country described the song as a "jaunty, feel-good tune". [2]
