"Doin' Fine" is a song recorded by American country music singer Lauren Alaina for her second studio album, Road Less Traveled (2017). Inspired by her parents' divorce, Alaina co-wrote the "semi-autobiographical" song with Emily Shackelton and the record's producer, busbee. It was released to American country radio May 22, 2017 as the album's third and final single.

Content

"Doin' Fine" is an autobiographical song that details the hardships faced by Alaina over the five years between the release of her first album and the recording of her second, including her father's alcoholism and her parents' divorce. The song's chorus addresses the process of overcoming these difficulties and learning to accept life's "crazy" moments. In writing the song, Alaina sought to be "brutally honest" about the events of her life, and requested her parents' permission to share their story.

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country described the song as a "straight-forward pop-country song," but with "more depth and certainly more vocal power" than most contemporary radio songs. Critics also noted the song's thematic similarity to previous single "Road Less Traveled". Alaina sang the song along with “What Ifs” at the 2018 ACM awards in which she won New Female Vocalist of the Year.
