Since retiring from football, it looks like Peyton Manning might be trying his luck at another high-profile career: country music singer.

The Tennessee alumnus performed the university's unofficial fight song Rocky Top on Monday night at Whiskey Jam concert series at Winners Bar in Nashville, Tennessee.

Manning, donning a Tennessee-orange tie, was joined on stage by Grammy nominee Lee Brice, Shay Mooney of Dan + Shay and musician Ward Guenther.

Though the two-time Super Bowl champion's chops weren't as practiced as the talented musicians surrounding him, Manning still seemed to be enjoying himself.

The crowd watching the performance helped him through the hit country song, first recorded by the Osborne Brothers in 1967.

Manning didn't call it quits after one song, however. He also gave his best rendition of Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues with Brice singing backup.
