Jamey Johnson talked to The Boot about the smash hit he wrote with Randy Houser and Dallas Davidson for Trace Adkins.We were hanging out at the Wild Horse Saloon in Nashville, and my buddy Rob was bartending. We were poor songwriters, so we'd go in there and get free beer. [laughs] Me, Dallas and Randy were hanging out there just cutting up and cracking jokes, watching this girl on the dancefloor who had this huge butt. [laughs] It looked like somebody stuffed a beach ball in her pants. So we got to laughing at this girl -- she was drunk as hell, just completely wasted and having the time of her life. She didn't care who was looking; she didn't care who she bumped into. So we started popping one-liners, and we threw out this word, 'badonkadonk.' And a minute later, we said, 'Honky tonk badonkadonk -- hell yeah, we've gotta write that!' So we wrote that song in just about an hour but spent half that time just laughing. And it turned out to be the best damn joke any of us had ever told!
