The song is a duet from the 1950 musical Guys and Dolls, and is sung by the characters Sky Masterson and Sister Sarah Brown. In the play it immediately follows the short solo song "My Time of Day", sung by Sky. Both songs were only used as background music in the 1955 film adaptation of the musical, [1] being replaced by the duet "A Woman in Love".
The song was introduced in the Broadway musical Guys and Dolls, [1] which opened at the 46th Street Theater on November 24, 1950. It was performed on stage by Vivian Blaine and a women's chorus as a nightclub act at the Hot Box. It is the first of two nightclub performances in the musical.
