Hope on the Rocks (song)

"Hope on the Rocks" is a song title, typically referring to a country music song recorded by American singer-songwriter Toby Keith. Released in 2013, it served as the second single from his seventeenth studio album, Drinks After Work.

The song utilizes the metaphor of a drink, "rocks," representing difficult circumstances or a challenging relationship, and "hope" as the beverage being diluted or negatively affected by those circumstances. Lyrically, it depicts a relationship struggling to survive due to external pressures and internal strife, using the "Hope on the Rocks" analogy to express the diminishing optimism of the narrator. The song's themes generally revolve around heartbreak, resilience, and the struggle to maintain faith in a relationship facing adversity.
