Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic wrote that "if [the title track's] accompanying album isn't quite up to its standards, it's nevertheless the work of an accomplished writer who knows how to sculpt a song for a wide audience. If "Buy Me a Boat" can be faulted, it's because its diversity often plays  like a demo tape, with Janson crafting songs for any possible contemporary country audience." Commercial performance. The album debuted at No. 4 on the Top Country Albums chart, and No. 18 on the "Billboard" 200, selling 18,536 copies in its first week. The album has sold 117,100 copies in the US as of March 2017.
