"Too Bad About Your Girl" carries a four-way writing credit, shared by the Donnas' Brett Anderson, Torry Castellano, Maya Ford and Allison Robertson, and it comes from Spend the Night, the 2002 album that was both their fifth studio record and their major-label debut, on Atlantic. Jason Carmer and Robert Shimp produced and engineered, with Chris Lord-Alge mixing.

The jump to the big leagues paid off. Spend the Night was the band's first album to make the Billboard 200, peaking at number 62, it carried "Take It Off", the most successful single they ever had, and by 2005 it had sold 450,000 copies in the US. Cherry Red reissued it in 2016 with six bonus tracks, B-sides and songs from earlier albums.
