TK is a tool and a joke. He ain't no A.P. Carter, he ain't no Hank. I'll give him this, he's got a decent band and good management. But as an artist, he's a sold-out hack. C'mon folks, falling for this shuck and jive reduces us to stooges. He's gonna clear $45 mil this year from advocating fanaticism, facism and neoconservative treachery while wrapping it in a flag and calling it down-home, wholesome pickin'. "I Love This Bar" is a good tune, did he write or lift it? He's no Farron Young, no Merle Travis, no Merle Haggard, no Merle Kilgore, no Merle Watson. He's a patsy and his voice is as average as a mutt. I can hear singers as singerly in the corner tavern. He's no Buck Owens, no Pearl S. Buck, no Buckminster Fuller. He is a auto parts store clerk that got lost on his way to the fishin' hole and wound up on TV. His career is 10 minutes then it is over.

READY FOR A RECKONING (The Toby Keith Song)
©02-Nov-03 Marlon St.John/ Intaglio

I love God, guns and whiskey, and the U.S. of A.
I like Freedom and women and getting my way
I like bombing civilians when there are millions at stake
I love when I’m told to be hard and be brave

I’ve got every right written under the sun
To do what is needed for ole number one
No one likes war to be sure, but we’re here for the flag
Just give me a holler and I’ll pack my bag

And I’m ready for anything
I’m ready for a reckoning
I’m ready for anything
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready…

I like tricked out Chevy’s, one-ton duallies and Skynard
I love the Outlaws and Hatchet and being self-centered
I play Ruby Ridge and Waco on my Sega; I fish bass
And if you don’t like what I like then, please, kiss my ass

Like my Daddy once told me “Live free or die
Don’t be a pussy or a wussy, and take an eye for an eye”
Like his daddy before him he fought and he paid
For the ground that you tread on called the U.S. of A.

Ready for anything
I’m ready for a reckoning
I’m ready for anything
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready…

(break)

Call me old fashioned you liberal turd
I’ll twist your neck if you dare try to misshapen my word
You ain’t fit to smell my armpit you socialist fool
In the end only some win; only some meant to rule

Call it propaganda, call it jingoist rot
Spell it out plainly or spell it out naught
But don’t use those big city words on me, son
‘Cuz I’m as country as a son of a ‘son of a gun’

And I’m ready for anything
I’m ready for a reckoning
I’m ready for anything
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready…

(solo)

I’ve got my nest underground should we do the nuclear thing
I’ve got my Heaven to tend to; people give me songs to sing
I’ve got my fans, my gold LPs, and a big ole jet plane
And there’s no one to stop me from owning everything

And I’m ready for anything…
(outro)
