At times I probably shouldn't listen to Toby
but I can't resist, or so it would seem,
he sings in courtesy of the red white and blue
and honors our land of the free.

Sometimes when I see that blue moon
I hear words that have touched my heart,
then I laugh until I don't cry
because I don't want the tears to start.

Someday I'll be able to ask the famous question
How do you like me now,
but I'll keep dream walking until then,
yes I will get by somehow.

Don't worry about me, cuz I'll get over you
It's all good and it's been fun....
I hope you remember how I rock you baby....
cuz this is over, and we are done!!

While I'm at it, I'd like to thank Toby
and say I also really love this bar
thanks for showing me he ain't worth missin
and for sharing these words...you are a STAR!

{Song titles used in the poem are italicized...
and boy that Toby Keith sure knows how
to inspire doesn't he....*grinz*}


It's better than I could have planned..
it's made me who I am...
{Trace Adkins}

My son who sings and plays country music also loves Toby's music.
Excellent write Donna.

I found there lives within me,

Ain't it funny?
I think it's funny...
I'm gonna laugh until I don't cry honey,
cuz shedding tears just ain't my style...
but I guess I ought to miss you for a little while.....
{as Toby sings it...}

Yep, if that's attitude, then it's one that I need to adapt
to quickly on this road I'm travelin..{even if I do have to wonder to myself sometimes what road that is}...lol..
Thanks all!!
