Greatest Hits 2 is the title of a greatest hits package released in 2004 by American country music singer-songwriter Toby Keith. The second greatest hits package of his career, it was released by DreamWorks Records Nashville; with sales of two million copies in the United States, it has been certified 2× Multi-Platinum by the RIAA.

The compilation is composed of nine tracks from his first four DreamWorks albums — 2000's How Do You Like Me Now?!, 2001's Pull My Chain, 2002's Unleashed, and 2003's Shock'n Y'all — 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 #3 and #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 are also included on this album: one of Keith's debut single "Should've Been a Cowboy" (originally from his self-titled debut album), and another of his 1995 single "You Ain't Much Fun" (originally from Boomtown).
