A letra foi escrita pela primeira vez em um saco de papel de um restaurante de frango frito, quando Norman Whitfield teve uma inspiração repentina enquanto assistia a um jogo de basquete.
O sucesso do single vendeu 2 milhões de cópias e ficou em primeiro lugar na parada Billboard Hot 100 dos EUA por uma semana, de 23 a 29 de janeiro de 1977, substituindo a música "I Wish" de Stevie Wonder.
Norman Whitfield inicialmente não queria assumir o projeto de criar a trilha sonora do filme "Car Wash", mas aceitou principalmente por incentivos financeiros e para dar visibilidade ao grupo Rose Royce.
A trilha sonora do filme "Car Wash", gravada inteiramente por Rose Royce e Norman Whitfield, ganhou o Grammy de Melhor Trilha Sonora em 1977.
A música foi regravada em 2004 por Christina Aguilera e Missy Elliott e lançada como single para a trilha sonora do filme de animação "Shark Tale".
Em 1988, a faixa foi relançada no Reino Unido como um single lado A duplo junto com a música "Is It Love You're After?", alcançando a 20ª posição nas paradas britânicas.
