I used to love jammin' out to this; I thought it was a perfect uptempo companion piece for the Eagles Lyin' Eyes. The Eagles were singing about a guy who'd come to the realization that his girl has been cheating on him. S&T take up pretty much the same story right where the Eagles left off, with the guy now telling the b**ch to get the hell out: ♪don't let the screen door hit you...♪ It's one of those great old '70s songs that most everyone seemed to like at the time.

I agree, this is an enjoyable song. Never heard another of theirs, but they certainly hit the mark with their big one.

It was OK. It used to get played on AT10. I didn't think it was a song that was that well known.
