Honky Tonk Badonkadonk is a 2005 country song by American singer Trace Adkins, released as a single from his album Songs About Me. The title uses playful slang for a curvaceous figure, and the song became one of Adkins' most recognisable hits, helped by its catchy chorus and lighthearted honky-tonk style. Years later, the short hook found a second life online, where creators clipped it for memes and short videos. It endures because the phrase is instantly catchy, easy to recognise, and works as a quick joke on confidence and attitude.
