Critical reception

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song four stars out of five, writing that "it’s as if you’re in the singer’s basement watching him jam with a few friendly pickers" and calling it "the most chill three-and-a-half minutes of music on country radio right now."[2] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song a favorable review, saying that "the melody is moody and accentuates Dierks' vocal while also allowing the mandolins and other instrumentals to shine."[3]

Kevin John Coyne of Country Universe gave the song a C grade, writing that "Bentley’s engaging enough of a personality and effective enough as a vocalist to keep the proceedings professional and competent [but the song] is just one of those forgettable songs that every time you hear it, it’s just a reminder that it exists."[4]

Music video

The music video was directed by Wes Edwards and premiered in September 2012.[5] It was filmed at the Georgia Theatre in Athens, Georgia.[6]
