"Guys Do It All the Time" is a song recorded by American country music artist Mindy McCready and written by Bobby Whiteside and Kim Tribble. The song was released on July 15, 1996, and reached the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart on September 14 of that year, becoming McCready's first and only Number One hit.[3] The song was the second single from McCready's double-platinum selling debut album Ten Thousand Angels. It was later re-recorded on her fifth and final studio album I'm Still Here along with "Ten Thousand Angels".
Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, saying that its "infectious, uptempo groove and clever lyric should ensure repeated play." She goes on to call McCready's voice "likeable" and says that she "delivers this song about turning the tables on men with sassy style."[4]
A video was also issued of the song (she wears boxing gloves and has shaving cream on her face), and has aired on CMT and GAC. The music video was directed by Jim Hershleder and premiered in June 1996.[5]
