Critical reception
Rick Mitchell of the Houston Chronicle wrote, "With its sweet sentiment, cute rhyme and catchy melody, it sounds like a can't-miss smash." The Dallas Morning News gave the song a negative review writing, "One, Two, I Love You, is a silly, badly written, midtempo cut that proves nursery rhymes are strictly for kids. With a chorus that reads "One, two, I miss you/Three, four, I walk the floor/Five, six, come back quick/I don't want to miss you no more," it sounds like palatable country aimed at the lowest common denominator."
Mike Joyce of the Washington Post also gave the song a negative review by writing, "The cloying kindergarten romance "One, Two, I Love You" doesn't qualify as a classic dud, it comes awfully close."
Music video
A music video was filmed for this song and premiered in May 1997. It was directed by Bill Young.
