Content
The song is about a rebellious female lover who is described as having "a little bit of devil in her angel eyes". Paslay told Taste of Country that the song's title came out in conversation, and that he "just wanted to make sure it didn’t sound too serious on that song." "It’s a fun song," Paslay said. "I’m glad that they recorded it and that it’s out there."[1]
Critical reception
Taste of Country writer Billy Dukes gave the song three stars out of five, saying that its story has "been told thousand of times before" but that it is "still really difficult to resist".[2] Bobby Peacock of Roughstock rated it four stars out of five, saying that its sound was "fresh and interesting."[3]
Music video
Directed by Chris Hicky, the video features the duo falling for two different girls: Eric picks up a brunette-haired woman wearing a leather jacket and a pair of jeans (who carries a flask with her) at a stable on his motorcycle. Stephen picks up a blonde-haired woman wearing a white long coat and scarf with a skirt at her house in his Ford Mustang. They both reach a late-night outdoor party where they meet their friends and hang out by drinking beer and dancing near the campfire. The video ends with the duo taking their respective dates to the same church and revealing that the women are possibly sisters as well as Preacher's daughters. The girls are played by Chicago-based model and musician, Erin Gipson.
