The song's lyrics contains the titles of Arnold's best-known songs to that time, intertwined to affirm a man's dedication to his significant other. Included in the song's lyrics are the names of 10 of the 17 number one hits he had achieved on the Billboard country charts through late 1952, when Arnold recorded and released the song.

"Eddy's Song" went on to become Arnold's 18th No. 1 song on the Billboard country chart, and was listed as the No. 11 song on the magazine's year-end retail chart for country records and No. 18 for jukebox plays.[2]
