Jimmy Buffett, Alan Jackson, Clint Black, Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith and George Strait all joined together on the stage to sing the classic Hank Williams country song, "Hey Good Lookin'" and it's a performance anyone who calls themselves a fan of country music needs to see ASAP.
Buffett recorded his own rendition of the song in 2004 for his album License to Chill (gonna throw this out there but that's the most Jimmy Buffett album title ever). Jackson, Strait, Keith, Chesney and Black were all featured on the "It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere" singer's track, which led to this iconic group performance at the 2004 CMA Awards in Nashville, Tennessee.

The studio version of Buffett and Co.'s "Hey Good Lookin'" hit No. 8 on the Billboard Hot Country chart in 2004, becoming one of Buffett's greatest hits on the country charts alongside songs like "Margaritaville."
By all accounts, this impromptu supergroup did the iconic country music song proud. But then again when you get this group together there's no way you're getting anything but a classic performance.
"Hey Good Lookin'" was written and recorded by Williams in 1951. The song has been covered by multiple artists throughout the years, including Ernest Tubb, George Jones, Ray Charles, Leon Russell and more.
"Hey Good Lookin'" Lyrics:
Say, hey, good lookin'
Whatcha got cookin'?
How's about cookin' somethin' up with me?
Hey, sweet baby
Don't you think maybe
We could find us a brand new recipe?
I got a hot-rod Ford and a two-dollar bill
And I know a spot right over the hill
There's soda pop and the dancin's free
So if you wanna have fun come along with me
Say, hey, good lookin'
Whatcha got cookin'?
How's about cookin' somethin' up with me?
I'm free and ready
So we can go steady
How's about savin' all your time for me?
No more lookin'
I know I've been tooken
How's about keepin' steady company?
I'm gonna throw my date book over the fence
And buy me one for five or ten cents
I'll keep it till it's covered with age
Cause I'm writin' your name down on every page
Say hey, good lookin' - what ya got cookin'?
How's about cooking somethin' up with me?
