Blake Boldt of The 9513 gave the song a "thumbs up", calling it "a plaintive ballad that easily fits among the best singles of the year." He praised the "rich images" of the lyrics and the backing vocals from Alison Krauss.[1] Bobby Peacock of Roughstock gave it a full five-star rating, calling the single "a near-flawless exercise in simplicity."[2]
The music video was directed by Roger Pistole and premiered in late 2010.
With a peak of number 33 on Hot Country Songs, "Draw Me a Map" is the lowest-peaking single of Bentley's career.[3]
