Song – “Don’t Let the Old Man In“

by Country Singer Toby Keith


Toby Keith, the legendary country-western singer, and Clint Eastwood, the iconic actor, decided to spend a day playing golf together.

At one point, Eastwood said to Keith, “I turn 88 on Monday.”

Keith asked, “What are you going to do?”

Eastwood replied, “I’m going to shoot a movie with filming scheduled for the following week”.

Keith asked him, “What keeps you going?”

Eastwood Replied, “I get up every day and don’t let the old man in.”

That conversation left a deep impression on Keith. He couldn’t shake off Eastwood’s words, so he went home and poured his feelings into a song.

He sent it to Clint and hoped that he would consider it.

And he did. 

The song Don’t Let the Old Man In is played in the Movie – “The Mule” (2018), starring Clint Eastwood.
