A response to "Jimmy Mack" by Martha Reeves and the Vendellas, in which Martha laments that her faithfulness is wavering while Jimmy Mack is away, as she is being wavered by a boy "just as sweet" as Jimmy, and she "can't hold out much longer". It was Eddie's concern that this song had been miswritten and needed fixing that led to the entire French Resistance project: Dyan suggested that the two of them fix it, and so they did. Their version is Jimmy's answer to his girlfriend's failing to remain true.
In Eddie's words:
Jimmy Mack heard Martha's song. So he's never coming back.
