“Toby Keith Once Honored Johnny Rodriguez By Singing “I Couldn’t Be Me Without You” This story is quite touching. In early 2020, while stuck in Mexico during the COVID-19 pandemic, Toby Keith found himself without a guitar. To keep playing music and soothe his soul, he bought an old guitar from a furniture store. In a simple, homemade video, Toby performed the song “I Couldn’t Be Me Without You”—written by Billy Joe Shaver and famously taken to #3 on the country charts by Johnny Rodriguez in 1976. Before he started singing, Toby shared: “Billy Joe Shaver wrote a little song, and Johnny Rodriguez sang the p— out of it.” With nothing but that old guitar, his raspy voice, and a plain backdrop, Toby conveyed a heartfelt sincerity. This wasn’t just a cover—it was a tribute. That moment has only grown more moving with time, as all three men connected to the song—Billy Joe Shaver (who passed away in October 2020), Toby Keith (February 5, 2024), and Johnny Rodriguez (May 9, 2025)—have now left us. One song, three men, and one seemingly small moment—now a timeless memory in the history of country music.

Krystal wrote an original song, like a musical letter to the man who had stood by her side from childhood to the day she stepped into a new life. The song wasn’t just a gift. It was a tribute — a heartfelt thank-you to a father who taught her not only how to be strong, but how to love with grace. 🎵 Listen to “Daddy Dance With Me” — and you’ll understand that some moments don’t need perfect music. All they need is sincerity to touch the heart.
