Composition and lyrics edit

Stephen L. Betts from Rolling Stone described "Tuesday I'll Be Gone" as a "plaintive yet forward-looking" country song with lyrics that discuss the uncertainty of life.[3] Taste of Country's Sterling Whitaker called it a musical departure from Anderson's "traditional country" roots, noting that it sounds more like an "early country rock" song suited for the American band Eagles.[4]
