Critical reception

Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, calling it "an ode to a barroom queen." She goes on to say that it is a nice taste of the duo's rockier side and the first use of the phrase "buckle bunny" in a country song.

Music video

The music video was directed by Sherman Halsey and premiered in early 1995. It features the duo as observers as a female mechanic sets out to be crowned "little miss honky tonk". Kix Brooks magically changes her car from a rusty station wagon to a sleek black chevy pickup and her clothes from dusty old rags to a polka dot dress using his guitar. At the event, she impresses the judges and wins the contest, and is escorted out by the whole bar in the end.
