I Can't Do No More was originally released as a tune recorded by Ray Charles with the Rufus Beacham's Orchestra on the Sittin' In With label, #651.
Its flip side, an instrumental, was Roly Poly, released under pianist and band leader Rufus Beacham's name. Roly Poly was subsequently released as Back Home under Ray Charles' name (together with I Can't Do No More) on all subsequent re-issues. During a March 4, 1989 interview, Ray Charles expert Joel Dufour played Roly Poly to Ray who said that the name of Rufus Beacham didn't ring any bell.
