We were laughing so hard, we pulled our buddy Drew Trosclair in on it. McKinney came up with the idea for the cities and their alliterative sex acts. Somewhere around March, McKinney sent me a finished version, it became a campfire thing. It's one of those songs that when the chorus hits, it's like, 'Let's go, baby'!"
