The song received a "thumbs down" from Engine 145 reviewer Juli Thanki, who commented that "though catchy, [the song] is a little low on cogency–not to mention originality." She also criticized it for being a "message song" in the line of McBride's other 2000s releases. She did, however, make note of McBride's vocal performance, saying that it showed emotion and was not reliant on "overly dramatic belting".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.engine145.com/martina-mcbride-ride/|title=Martina McBride — "Ride"|last=Thanki|first=Juli|date=2008-11-20|work=Engine 145|access-date=2009-01-31|archive-date=2011-12-04|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111204004504/http://www.engine145.com/martina-mcbride-ride/|url-status=live}}</ref> Kevin Coyne of Country Universe, however, gave the song an A− rating.

"Ride" is an up-tempo song with a motivational theme. In it, the narrator uses a roller coaster as a metaphor for life.
Critical reception
The song received a "thumbs down" from Engine 145 reviewer Juli Thanki, who commented that "though catchy, [the song] is a little low on cogency–not to mention originality." She also criticized it for being a "message song" in the line of McBride's other 2000s releases. She did, however, make note of McBride's vocal performance, saying that it showed emotion and was not reliant on "overly dramatic belting".[1] Kevin Coyne of Country Universe, however, gave the song an A− rating. His review also describes McBride's vocal performance favorably: "McBride gives the song a straightforward performance that’s rough around the edges in all of the right ways."[2]
