The narrator talks about dancing with his lover with "nothing on but the radio".
Deborah Evans Price of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, calling the lyric a "light and breezy look at the beginnings of a new relationship. It's nothing deep, just frisky and fun." She goes on to say that the lead guitar starts the song and the melody "immediately catches listeners' attention-and the steel guitar and fiddle-laced production set the perfect stage for Allan's country-boy vocal."[2]
