Jelly Roll delivered a heartfelt performance of one of Toby Keith’s most sentimental hits throughout his decades-long career. The Whitsitt Chapel star covered “My List” during the Toby Keith: American Icon show hosted at Bridgestone Arena in Downtown Nashville, Tennessee. The pre-recorded tribute show is set to air on Wednesday evening (August 28).

Keith released “My List” on his 13-track album, Pull My Chain, in 2001. That album also included “I’m Just Talking’ About Tonight,” “I Wanna Talk About Me,” and more. A preview of Jelly Roll’s soon-to-air “My List” performance shows other artists singing along in the audience and Keith’s wife, Tricia Lucus, dabbing tears from her eyes. Keith, who died earlier this year after a years-long battle with stomach cancer, is also survived by his three children, Krystal Keith, Shelley Covel Rowland and Stelen Keith Covel

“Go for a walk, say a little prayer/ Take a deep breath of mountain air/ Put on my glove and play some catch/ It's time that I make time for that/ Wade the shore and cast a line/ Look up an old lost friend of mine/ Sit on the porch and give my girl a kiss/ Start livin', that's the next thing on my list”
