Toby Keith was playing golf with Clint Eastwood. That sets the stage.
At one point, Eastwood said to Keith, “I turn 88 on Monday.”
“What are you going to do?” Keith asked.
“I’m going to shoot a movie,” Eastwood replied, with filming scheduled to begin the following week.
“What keeps you going?” Keith asked him.
“I get up every day and don't let the old man in,” Eastwood said.
“I’m writing this down right now,” Keith replied.
Keith didn't ask him if he could contribute a song; Keith just went home and wrote it.
He sent it to Clint and hoped he would like it. And he did!
