Toby Keith

"You get good days and, you know, you're up and down, up and down."

His big moment is one fans will be talking about for months to come.

Keith performed the song at the 2023 People's Choice Country Awards in Nashville on Thursday (Sept. 28).

While Keith sounded strong, he and his wife Tricia's tears told anyone watching that his battle is A) either much more difficult than fans know, B) far from over, or C) both.

Shelton performed a rocking cover of Keith's "Who's Your Daddy?" before presenting the country legend with the Country Icon Award.

"It's a roller coaster," Keith said. "Lean on your faith and lean into it and you just do what's next."

"Should've Been a Cowboy," "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue" and "Who's Your Daddy?" are three songs found on the album.

Toby Keith is set to return to television for the first time since revealing his cancer battle.

Leave it to Toby Keith to tell the cold, hard truth.

Good food, good drinks, good eatin'.
