Content

The title of the album this song was taken from comes from its refrain "I will be the whole shebang". Drums were played by session musician Vinnie Colaiuta, who also performed on "Little Good-Byes". His style when cutting the track gave the feel of a live performance, going so far as including the double kick commonly found in heavy metal music and rarely used in country music studio recordings.

Music video

Directed by Shaun Silva, the video for this song is very simple, focusing on the trio at various concerts, as well as black-and-white shots of them doing goofy things. They are also seen performing the song in a parking garage, and while sitting on top of a bar.
