O single foi lançado em 1978 como a segunda música do álbum de estreia homônimo da banda Van Halen.
Em 2009, a VH1 a elegeu como a 9ª maior canção de hard rock de todos os tempos.
A letra foi inspirada na música "Runnin' from the Devil", da banda Ohio Players.
Os fãs frequentemente interpretam mal a letra como sendo satânica, embora os membros da banda nunca tenham revelado o significado completo da obra.
A frase "Runnin' with the devil" é comumente entendida como uma referência à liberdade, retratada no contexto da música como a ausência de laços sociais e a vivendo no presente.
É uma interpretação comum que a música aborde a experiência de uma banda jovem em turnê, explorando a ideia de que um estilo de vida "simples" não é tão simples quanto parece.
