"15 Minutes" is a song written by Tony Mullins and Jamie Lee Thurston, and recorded by American country music singer Rodney Atkins. It was released in May 2009 as the second single from his album It's America.

The narrator talks about quitting smoking, drinking, and women. He states "it was the worst 15 minutes of [his] life", show that he couldn't last long without them.

Pierce Greenberg of Engine 145 described "15 Minutes" favorably in his review of the album, comparing it to Kevin Fowler's and Brad Paisley's styles and saying, "Likely to be a crowd favorite, it's a song that shows the same kind of thoughtful, clever hook that those artists have built careers around." Todd Sterling of Allmusic called it a "honky tonk mashup" and said that it had "a ton of heart" even if it was "calculated".
