Looking to create this: button with right arrow/pointer

What would be the best way to achieve it?

IT MUST:
I’d definitely like to keep the text as text (so not using an image). Also, I’d like this to be re-usable so that I can put different text in it.
Ideally, the arrow part should be as high as the text.

NICE TO HAVE:
I’d like to be able to drop this on any background (so it isn’t always on white)
Would be great if it was ie8+

Thanks!!
