• The title track of LoCash's third album, this only found its way onto the project thanks to a last-minute plea for help from Chris Lucas and Preston Brust to some of their songwriting pals. "We called these boys up, and we said, 'Listen, we need the best song. Don't send us a bunch of songs. Just send us one song that you feel compelled, that needs to be on the radio, that needs to be heard. Something from your heart, and that feels like a LoCash song,'" Brust explained. "And we got some great songs."
  
  The LoCash duo ended up choosing "The Fighters," written by Rodney Clawson, Tom Douglas, and Matt Dregstem. "It's appropriate for Chris and I because we fought so hard to get to this moment," Brust said. "If you have ever fought a battle of your own, or know someone who has fought a battle, then this one is for you."
• Preston Brust told Billboard magazine why they named the album after this song. "When Tom (Douglas) sent it to us, he said 'I don't know a better fit for this song.' I took one listen, and played it for Chris, and he said 'That's it. Boom. This is not only getting recorded, but it will be the title track of the album. It describes us, and everybody who has ever been down on their luck - at least once in their life. We all have to fight back, you just have to do it.'"
