Trailerhood
"Trailerhood" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist Toby Keith. It was released in June 2010 as the first single from his 2010 album '' Bullets in the Gun''. The song peaked at number 19 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot Country Songs chart and at number 97 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100. Content "Trailerhood" is an upbeat song that celebrates the trailer park lifestyle. In the narrator's view, it's a world filled with pink flamingos and plastic pools (Carl, who lives next door), poker games (Gamblin' James, who will let anyone participate for $15), "music playing up and down the block", auto racing, and Dallas Cowboys football. But it's also a "little piece of paradise" without judgment, where true friendships can be found. The song also makes fun of the tendency of trailer parks seeming to attract tornadoes, suggesting that when the warning sirens go off, one should grab a six-pack and a lawn chair to watch.

Songs Written By Toby Keith
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers fo ...

1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by 2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following 0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
