Good Guys is the second studio album by American country music artist Bucky Covington . It was released on September 11, 2012 by E1 Music . The album includes the singles "I Want My Life Back ", "Gotta Be Somebody " (a Nickelback cover), and "A Father's Love (The Only Way He Knew How) ", all of which Covington released for the defunct Lyric Street Records between 2009 and 2010.[ 1] "I Wanna Be That Feeling" was promoted as the album's official lead single by E1 Music, and "Drinking Side of Country" was released as the follow-up.
Giving it 4 out of 5 stars, Tammy Ragusa of Country Weekly said that Covington "sounds so at ease on every track".[ 2] Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic rated it 2.5 stars out of 5, criticizing it for having "numerous awkward country-pop attempts".[ 1] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave it 3 out of 5, saying that "He's an emotive, effervescent vocalist with a winning personality and that personality and emotion is shown in abundance throughout the album."[ 3]
