"Take Back Home Girl" was written by Hillary Lindsey, David Garcia and Josh Miller. The song is a "soulful ode to those girls you can bring home to mom", and Rolling Stone described it as a "grooving, R&B-centric country track." Lane said when asked for an artist with whom he would like to record a duet, Tori Kelly was his first choice. Kelly said that, after being sent a demo of the song by her manager, she liked it so much that she was willing to record duet vocals on it before she had even been told with which artist she would be collaborating.
