Content
The song features elements of country music and contemporary R&B, with a banjo riff and drum machine, with lead vocals by Tyler Hubbard. Taste of Country writer Sterling Whitaker described it as a "slow, sexy ballad", and said of its lyrical content that "The narrator manages to talk his lady love into getting ready to hit the town, but once he sees her in the dress she chose, his intentions change"[1] Hubbard referred to it as the "baby-making song".[2]
Commercial performance
The song has sold 169,000 copies in the United States as of September 2019.[3] On the Billboard Hot 100, the song managed to peak at number 57 on the week of August 17, 2019.[4] Despite not reaching the top 50, the song also managed to appear on the year-end chart of the Billboard Hot 100 in 2019 at 94. By doing so, it became the lowest-peaking song to ever make a year-end Hot 100, passing "El Perdón" by Nicky Jam and Enrique Iglesias which peaked at 56.[5]
