"Good Girls" is an uptempo rockabilly and pop rock song written by Elle King and Dave Bassett.

In a review of the Ghostbusters soundtrack, James Monger of AllMusic praised "Good Girls" and "Get Ghost" as highlights, writing, "Mark Ronson... gets the vibe right on the hook-filled... "Get Ghost"..., and Elle King dispatches the sassy girl power jam "Good Girls," but the rest of the set feels rushed and forgettable." Michael Roffman of Consequence of Sound gave a glowing review of the song, writing, "much like her past earworms... ["Good Girls" is] fucking nuclear, wired with dozens of hooks and made urgent by scandalous lyrics that go hand in hand with the majority of today's nihilistic pop."
