Music critic Richie Unterberger, writing for Allmusic, wrote "His droll delivery and toying with clichés makes it hard to tell whether he's the straight man or a joker, and it's that ambiguity that makes these oddball tunes so intriguing -- such pleasant, straight country-pop on the one hand, but such deviously subtle irony on the other.
