The crowd danced as they performed Adkins’ hit “Honky Tonk Badonkadonk.”
Some of the song’s hilarious lyrics are,
“Now Honey, you can’t blame her
For what her mama gave her
It ain’t right to hate her
For workin’ that money-maker
Band shuts down at two
But we’re hangin’ out ’til three
We hate to see her go
But love to watch her leaveWith that honky tonk badonkadonk
Keepin’ perfect rhythm
Make ya wanna swing along
Got it goin’ on like Donkey Kong.”
Watch as the entire crowd sings along and dances to the hit below.
