Critical reception
Billy Dukes of Taste of Country rated "Give It All We Got Tonight" 4.5 out of 5 stars. He states the song is a "...rarely matched romancer with more sensory cues than just about everything he’s ever cut. After just a single listen, one breathes in the smell of a summer shower garnished with sweet perfume or rugged cologne." He finishes with saying, "his best songs are timeless, seemingly capable of becoming a hit in the ’80s, ’90s or 2000s. Add ‘Give It All We Got Tonight’ to a list of his all-time classics."
Matt Bjorke of Roughstock also rated it 4.5 out of 5 stars. He states, "with "Give It All We Got Tonight," George showcases that he's still got it with this romantic tempo-filled ballad" and that it "finds George back in the pocket of Nashville's writers, a place where he's always been able to mine hits as a man with some of the best ears in Nashville."
