Transcription
Content
"Wrong Baby Wrong Baby Wrong" is a moderate up-tempo, backed primarily by electric guitar, that features a hook where the beginning of each lyrical phrase in the verses are repeated to match the song's title. In the song, a female narrator describes telling another woman to pick herself back up after her man has walked out on her, describing that everyone experiences these moments as part of life.
Critical reception
Engine 145 reviewer Blake Boldt gave the song a thumbs-up, stating that while the song "stumbles in telling its story," it "offers the listener a blast of sass that’s sorely missing from country radio." He also favorably described the song's production as having a "bluesier edge," with a "groovy energy [that] breathes life into a slight little ditty."[1]

The music video, which was directed by Theresa Wingert, premiered on CMT on March 18, 2010.[2] In the video, McBride is shown driving her car to pick up her friends, who appear to be upset after their boyfriends' walked out on them, to take them out for a good time. The first woman she picks up is drinking coffee alone in a diner, the second is at a laundromat doing her laundry, and the third woman is shown staring out her apartment window.
