The music video was directed by Dave Meyers and premiered on CMT, GAC and Vevo in January 2019.

Commercial performance
"Girl" reached a peak of Number One on the Billboard Country Airplay chart dated August 3, 2019.[3] It is the singer's third single to reach the top of the Country Airplay chart, and it was also the first solo female song to lead the chart in over a year, since Kelsea Ballerini's "Legends" in February 2018. The following week, it fell to number 13, making it the first song to fall out of the top 10 from Number One since Shania Twain's "You Win My Love" fell from number 1 to number 11 in 1996.
The song was certified Gold by the RIAA on July 17, 2019, and Platinum later the same year on October 10 for one million units in combined sales and streams.[4] It has sold 155,000 copies in the United States as of December 2019.[5]
