Born in … Read Full Bio ↴Aaron Tippin (born July 3, 1958) is a country music singer.
Born in Pensacola, Florida, but raised in upstate South Carolina, Tippin performed in local honky-tonks in the 1970s. He competed on TNN's "You Can Be A Star" talent contest in 1986, landed a song publishing contract and moved to Nashville in 1987. During this time he wrote songs for The Kingsmen, David Ball, The Midsouth Boys, Mark Collie, and Charlie Pride. He would spend his nights working at a mill in Kentucky and spend his days driving 60 miles to Nashville to write songs.
Tippin performed his first Nashville nightclub show in 1990, and it earned him a contract with RCA records. His first single, "You've Got to Stand for Something", cracked the top 10 in 1991 and allowed him to go to the Persian Gulf with Bob Hope, to entertain the troops. Then, in 1992, Aaron's single "There Ain't Nothin' Wrong With the Radio" stayed at No. 1 for three weeks.
In 1995, Tippin married Thea Corontzos, and he, Thea, and his manager, Billy Craven, created Tippin's company, Tip Top Entertainment. Tippin also opened two hunting supply stores called Aaron Tippin Firearms. One is located close to where he lives in Smithville, Tennessee, and the other run by his father in Oak City, North Carolina.
In 1998, Tippin moved to Lyric Street Records and charted a No.1 hit with "Kiss This", co-written with his wife Thea in 2000. In the wake of 9/11, his patriotic anthem, "Where the Stars and Stripes and Eagle Fly", peaked at No. 2. Both songs crossed over onto the Hot 100 charts; in fact, "Stars And Stripes" was his biggest crossover hit.
In 2006, Tippin started up his own record label, Nippit Records; the label's name is "Tippin" spelled backwards.

Along about nine o'clock
His memory was history
Before she hit the parking lot
She busted through them swingin' doors
Sashaying to and fro
She's got a new attitude yes she's over that dude
And she wants the world to know that
(Oh yes) She feels like a brand new man tonight
She didn't come in here to hang her head and cry
She's through throwing good love away
On some boy that don't treat her right
She feels like a brand new man tonight
Just like a kid in a candy store
She's checking out the merchandise
But she wants to find the keeping kind
Who will keep her satisfied
And he's gotta be strong gotta be tough
And he's gotta have a tender touch
So if you fit the bill brother don't sit still
Come on step right up 'cause
(Oh yes) She feels like a brand new man tonight
She didn't come in here to hang her head and cry
She's through throwing good love away
On some boy that don't treat her right
She feels like a brand new man tonight
(Oh yes) She feels like a brand new man tonight
She didn't come in here to hang her head and cry
She's through throwing good love away
On some boy that don't treat her right
She feels like a brand new man tonight
I said she feels like a brand new man tonight
