The song was composed by Peppermint Harris for performer Fenton Robinson, who made the first recording in 1959 on the Duke Records label. Pianist James Booker participated in the recording session. Due to common industry practice of the era, the composition was officially credited to Deadric Malone, the owner of Duke Records. The original title was slightly different, lacking the word "Passing."
