Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song four stars out of five, writing that "what this duo continues to do better than any man/woman pairing in Nashville is find that sweet spot between genuine and too real." Matt Bjorke of Roughstock also gave the song four stars out of five, saying that "the melody and production are modern in approach but once you hear Shawna Thompson['s] lead vocal, it's not hard to know that this is both a country song and something that's not of the 'also-ran' category."
