Greatest Hits 2 is the title of a greatest hits album released in 2004 by American country music singer-songwriter Toby Keith. The second greatest hits album of his career, it was released by DreamWorks Records Nashville. The album was certified triple platinum by the RIAA on January 11, 2006,[1] and has sold 3,944,200 copies in the United States as of January 2017.[2]

The compilation is composed of nine tracks from his first four DreamWorks albums: 1999's How Do You Like Me Now?!, 2001's Pull My Chain and 2002's Unleashed, as well as five new recordings. Three of these new recordings are studio tracks, of which two ("Stays in Mexico" and "Mockingbird") were released as singles, reaching No. 3 and No. 27, respectively, on the Hot Country Songs charts. "Mockingbird", a cover of the Inez and Charlie Foxx hit, features Keith's daughter Krystal as a duet partner.

Two newly recorded live renditions of two of Keith's early hits are also included on this album: one of his 1993 #1 debut single "Should've Been a Cowboy" (originally from his self-titled debut album), and another of his 1995 #2 hit "You Ain't Much Fun" (originally from Boomtown).
