Critical reception
An uncredited Taste of Country review stated that "“Stone Cold Sober” is a songwriter’s showcase that fans will need to dive into to fully appreciate. There’s nothing hooky about the track, but one only needs to go as far as his last single — the chart-topping “One Hell of an Amen” — to see this works for the just-married singer from Georgia."
