Toby Keith’s “Made In America”
Toby Keith debuted “Made In America” last week on the CMT Awards. Shortly after his recent USO Tour of the Persian Gulf, Keith went into the studio to work on his next album. “Made In America,” written by Keith, Bobby Pinson, and Gregory Scott Reeves came together so well that Show Dog-Universal rush released the song.
