Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song four and a half stars out of five, writing that "there is a little lesson to be learned from Corbin’s message, but the easy rhythm makes this one that few will take issue with learning again and again." [3] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song four stars out of five, calling it "a strong, melodic and memorable single." [4]
Ben Foster of Country Universe gave the song a B+ grade, saying that the song "is a smooth, steel-heavy two-stepper, which Corbin effortlessly eases into with his signature laid-back vocal style that repeatedly draws comparisons to George Strait" and "the lyrics don’t warrant much explanation, but the sonic packaging almost makes them seem inconsequential."

The music video was directed by Shaun Silva and filmed in Austin, Texas. [6] It premiered in April 2012 as part of CMT Big New Music Weekend. [7]
