Critical reception[edit]

Website Taste of Country gave the song a positive review, saying that "[the] ballad reminisces about the hallmarks of 'Small Town USA'. Blue collars, Friday night football, Sunday morning church … If Rockwell was a country singer, he’d write this kind of song."[3]

Chart performance[edit]

The song peaked at number 44 on the US Billboard Country Airplay chart and at number 50 on Hot Country Songs, becoming Moore's lowest peaking single since "Back That Thing Up", his debut single, peaked at number 38 in 2008.
