[@mrsd1095]

When I saw this performance I felt then that it was his goodbye to us. My heart is still broken over his passing.

[@awy1977]

I was there in Vegas too, at the Park MGM. I felt the same.

[@jggdthoughts4156]

I felt this as well.. This is his goodbye, much like Johnny Cash with Hurt.

[@billienethery7643]

I felt the same way! I’m one of the lucky ones! I beat cancer.

[@travissmith6373]

He passed away last night on February 5th. Listening to this hits so differently now. Rest in peace Toby Keith

[@Jman531]

I said that night, that he was saying good bye to his fans. He did perform after this in Vegas in December, but this performance was his last Nationally televised performance.

[@kellyanndean9374]

He was my favorite❤😢💔

[@janeforeman6823]

I pretty sure anyone who's been closed to death due to health can understand it.

[@paulabroadworth2504]

Watching him sing this at the time made me cry and sadly at that time watching him and his wife during it I had a bad feeling he was going to pass in 2024. Sadly he didn't make it far in 2024. RIP Toby

[@mellisahiggins8569]

This performance definitely hits harder now he’s such an amazing man and artist Rip Toby

[@paulamaggard6499]

He got the idea of the song from Clint Eastwood who was about to start directing a new movie at age 88. He asked Clint how he did it. Clint told him, “I just get up every morning…and I don’t let the old man in”. Toby loved the line & turned it into a song.

[@donnamoskowitz4978]

I love this song! I did not know the story behind it, so thanks for sharing that info! Howdy from Texas 🤠

[@terri2494]

Thanks for the info. This was my first time hearing the song and I thought he was talking about death. Now, knowing the line originated with Clint Eastwood, I can see where it could mean that he refuses to think of himself as an old man, with all the frailty and limitations associated with advanced age. It certainly works for Clint. Let’s pray that it helps Toby in his fight.

[@nancyharn1980]

It was used in the Clint Eastwood movie The Mule. There's also a video of this song using clips of the movie.

[@sandywright6257]

You should just let Mr.TKC tell his story ! Everybody's got one .His song is amazingly bittersweet. GODSPEED Toby !

[@lenardhenderson9674]

I think he was saying don't sit around get out and go do something because if you don't the old man will come and get you if he's knocking on your door kick him in the ass and get outside and go do something with family or friends

[@marshag9360]

He wrote this song before he was diagnosed with cancer. By some of his interviews about this song, it seems he's talking about not letting your life change just because of your age. He wrote this song because he was so amazed that at the age of 88 Clint Eastwood was still directing and acting in movies despite his age. He asked him How do you do it?? Clint said I get up & go outside every day, and I dont let the old man in. Clint Eastwood is now 93. God Bless Clint and Toby rest in heaven.

[@Snakewild96]

And acting. . Clint Eastwood as Well A Toby..are true Americans…R.I.P. TOBY..KEEP WATCHING OVER US!

​@@williamgdavis9176God bless you William. We all have to be gentle with one another. We are not here forever. I'm 80 now, full of life, look so very young, not your typical 80 year old. Walk with Jesus, believe in a higher power. When it is your time to go, if you have been gifted by longevity as I have been, don't complain, so many young are dying right and left today. If you can make someone smile, put a smile on their face, why would you not????

Yes that is his wife. He is a great singer and he is a great person. Rest in Peace. You will be missed.

[@GoldenBuddah1972]

That was awful to see

[@familymajor]

I've been crying for 2 days. I thought we were going to beat cancer together! My daughters' 29 & 26 called me. They grew up with Toby music. They know how much I loved him. I'm just broken over THIS! FUCK CANCER!😢🤬

I was the same way that morning when I heard. I absolutely cried off and on all day. Then again my family has been crying since November 9th. The day my daughter was murdered. Anyway, Toby was always big in my home. Thanks for doing this.

[@barbaraforsyth1257]

I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine. Praying for you and your family. 😢❤️🙏

[@user-uh2vx8df8z]

This is the hardest hitting song Toby Keith has ever sang

[@billienethery7643]

I honestly believe he knew he had a very short time left. He had stopped his chemo and radiation. He battled hard for a couple of years. He passed away shortly after this! His first remark was “bet you never thought you would ever see me in skinny jeans!”

[@megreed3670]

This hurts on a whole new level. Seeing The Big Man look so frail, and singing this song. And now he’s gone. “My body weathered and worn.” Dart to the heart.

[@bella-xp7qd]

Yes that is his wife. Song brought tears to her eyes, and his eyes watered. In the beginning, he said to the audience, "You didn't think you'd ever see me in skinny jeans".

[@pjj9491]

Toby died yesterday....😢😢...such a good person...talented...funny....good dad and husband...really thought he would beat this...RIP Toby...you are already missed...😢😢😢😢

Toby is a Christian and was married to his wife for 40 years and had 3 daughters. He is in the Glory of Heaven and Jesus.

[@melaniesanderson9969]

He had 2 daughters and 1 son.

[@gregoryjacobson1645]

Toby is such an amazing inspiration as I am a Pancreatic and Stomach Cancer survivor. I understand the difficulties he has faced and becoming almost a skeleton of yourself. F CANCER.

[@christinecolon5472]

I am so glad that you survived your cancer. I am battling Bile duct cancer since May of 2022. Survival rate for this cancer is only 24 percent. I had to stop chemotherapy because of the severe side effects, even with early detection. I am still here and I am enjoying my grand babies as long as I can.

I've been crying for the past 2 days...! I'm an old man...77, and I'm in shock losing Toby...! Thank you for this video on you show...!

[@gailolson8255]

Don't let the old man in...

[@janflewelling6277]

I'm 68 and some days I wonder how I got here. In my head I still feel like the 20-something young woman of my youth, which is why I am soo happy to see your reactions to the favorite music I enjoyed back in the day. Good memories. 🥰🎶 My mirror and often my body betrays the illusion, but I hope that in my mind and spirit I'm still keeping the Old Lady outside.

[@tupelohoney622]

I totally understand! I just turned 62 years old and I can still do most of what I've always done. It feels unreal to be 62, but I've enjoyed every day and wish I could enjoy each day over again. I've been blessed. I'm happily married 42 years, my BFF of 38 years is coming to visit and I was blessed to have my mother and her wisdom until she was 94. Enjoy each day!

Keep active and don’t sit around. Don’t let the old man in and stop living.

He wrote this for Clint Eastwood. Clint ended up using the song in his movie the Mule. Toby lost a lot of weight during his cancer treatment. He is sadly missed

His voice is just as beautiful as usual! RIP, Toby! You were a true American Patriot! Thank you for supporting our troops and doing 11 tours! You are amazing!! Have fun in Heaven! Sing loud and enjoy! 🙏❤️

[@JoseGarcia-ph2ir]

I cry almost every time when I see him sing this song. My father passed away from bone marrow cancer and he had some of the same mannerisms Toby does, especially how he moved his mouth at the end. I miss my pops, and I am gonna miss Toby and his music. RIH Toby. You were and still are an inspiration and larger than life. Truthfully, I shed tears writing this. Daing it

[@jealousjelly]

This is Toby just after receiving the Country Icon Award at the Country Music People's Choice Awards show two weeks ago. If anybody deserves an icon award, it's Toby. The "old man" in this song is definitely the Grim Reaper, who's been knocking on Toby's door for several years now. It's good to see that he's managed to keep that door closed so far. Prayers for Toby.

[@russellloveland1214]

It's sad they have not let him into the country music hall of fame. They will now that's he's gone but it would have been nice for him to be alive to see it

Toby wrote this song 4 yrs. ago for Clint Eastwood, yet so appropriate now!!!!!

[@user-ix7vx2ho5e]

This is what makes Toby Keith unique. The words came straight from the heart. When you are young thoughts like this may cross your mind. But you don't dwell on it and one day when you are older you think to yourself. It's inevitable we all have to face it. It's a sad reality but it's the truth no one wants to die but now the time is here and you graciously and courageously face the moment of truth. It's your time but you really don't want to go..You say to yourself there's more time. But the Lord has the final say and it's time for you to go.. It's a sad reality and then we face it. Rest in peace Toby Keith with your words all of us face reality. Thank you for the years of beautiful music an great memories an beautiful songs.A person's life is not measured by wealth and worldly things.But what keeps our memory alive is how much we are loved by others.Amen🎉💜 you fought courageously and valiantly Amen

When I watched him perform this song, I had a strong feeling that he was saying goodbye to the fans. Especially when I saw how much weight he’d lost. Stomach cancer is so darn aggressive

That song is heart wrenching, knowing his health etc, but it went perfectly with the movie too. 'The Mule' Clint was 89 when he released the movie in 2018 & it was based on a crime by a 90 year old in the news in 2014. I love everything Toby does & hope you get time to do more. He has so many sides to his music, he can bring out a ton of different emotions.

Songs like this hit differently when you know the person who wrote/sang it knew they were dying. Freddy Mercury wrote and regularly performed Who Wants to Live Forever while he was fighting AIDs, and Johnny Cash recorded Hurt (by 9 inch nails) when he knew he was close to death. They just hit differently.

[@maribiddle5859]

To sing this five years after writing it... knowing he’s fighting cancer is a gift to his fans. He is saying he will fight to the very end! He has lost so much weight, but not his voice! He can be hilarious... then we get this! Like his song for 9/11.

I feel it means that though age why you may be old, but stay young in mind, and heart. Keep moving, loving and living! Another good one👍✌️

[@brianzinner5955]

That is exactly what the song means.

Just dont get old. Dont give the old man in. Dont give up. ❤ Blessing to Toby Kieths family. He will surely be missed.

Man, this reminds me of my late husband. He was a bulldogger. Big and strapping. But he was skinny when he passed from kidney cancer in 2012. And I saw Toby Keith in Bosnia in 2002 and in Iraq in 2004.

Toby Keith is a great singer love his music ❤❤

[@psrandy1]

That was his wife Sebs. I saw this live and I got a bit teary eyes when it was done live and the lead-up to him coming on. Blake Shelton building him up and his career. You have to see that program and that part of the show. Toby said the "old man" was a metaphor for death. Him facing mortality and fights to live and survive.

[@phyl1042]

That's how I took it, that the "old man" was Death.

[@tcurry2512]

Yes, the pretty brunette lady is his wife. I watched this when it aired as well and cried too. My dad has had three strokes this year which caused dementia. His looks have changed so much too, and this performance really tugged at my heartstrings because watching a big, strong man affected by illness bravely carry on is amazingly heroic in the face of illness and everything is extra emotional these days. That was a really special performance and Blake was really great as well in the kind and funny way he honored Toby.

@@tcurry2512 I’m so sorry about your dad. My mom was in the early stages of dementia when she fell and got a brain bleed two years ago. She died six days later. I never realized someone could get it from a stroke, or a series of strokes. Mom’s grandfather had it and her dad and three of his four siblings had it so we always knew it was a possibility with mom. She’s the oldest by ten years of her cousins and sister so we were waiting to see if it would hit her generation. We were hoping it was environmental rather than genetic. All that to say I can’t imagine having to deal with it without warning. I hope you’re able to have some special times with your dad in spite of the circumstances. It’s so hard to lose someone incrementally. I’m praying right now for you, your dad, and the rest of your family. Blessings and peace to you all.

@@phyl1042 But he got the idea and the title from Clint Eastwood. They were playing golf together and Clint was going to be 90 in a couple of days, and Toby asked him how he did it (keep going and still making movies and such). Clint said that when he got up in the mornings he just didn't let the old man in. I took it to mean that he still felt younger and wouldn't let his age slow him down.

[@Renee-Suzanne]

RIP Toby Keith. We all have to let the old man in, eventually!

[@randygaeta5658]

He wrote it in 2018 after asking Clint Eastwood how to you keep going at his age. Clint said I don’t let the old man in . My dad at 83 lives by that phrase now . Love TK ❤

This song brings forth my father, who passed away at 42 after a long battle with cancer. I've often wondered what he would have been like as an old man....
