Critical reception



Dan Milliken of Country Universe gave the song a C grade, saying that "the generic 'moody' 90s production does some of the damage, as does a patchwork melody that cant seem to connect its phrases. But you can also hear McGraw still ironing out his vocal technique, as his likably nervous tremor in the verses meets a series of clumsy trills and some pitchy "baby"s and "maybe"s."[http://www.countryuniverse.net/2011/11/30/retro-single-review-tim-mcgraw-maybe-we-should-just-sleep-on-it/ CountryUniverse.net] Review by Dan Milliken
