On 27 September 1993, Duff McKagan explains the origin of the song in an interview on Rockline: "Basically this is a riff that we would do to test the sound."

This song also mentions about the assassination of John F. Kennedy on the lyrics: "And in my first memories They shot kennedy," and the struggle for civil rights and Vietnam War. Rose was one year old when Kennedy was assassinated. Duff and Slash were born after that.
