Denise is accurate. This is an important distinction. Hank Sr. was one of country’s legendary artists.Died too soon. Hank Jr fell down the side of a mountain, was nearly killed, and came back to be a country star in his own right, giving us songs like this one.

Gotta love Hank Williams Jr, a.k.a. Bocephus. This song is a microcosm of American exceptionalism.

This is one song that most every culture can relate to. Country Boy does not refer to a person's race. It refers to a way of life. There are country folk in every state. My grandpa taught me a lot growing up, most everything in this song was how he grew up and tried to bestow in his family. I grew up close to the city, but my heart lies in the country. A shotgun, a rifle and 4 wheel drive was a necessity for life and remains true today.

It's never too late to be Country Folk. I'm lucky because I've been one for 70 yrs. It's attitude and having the right circle.

This is Hank Williams JR. His father is a country legend, Hank Williams who died on New Years Night in 1953. Now, I can just see the next time you guys visit Amber's Dad that Jay tells him "We heard a song all about you"

"Even though his kind of music and mine ain't exactly the same."

I love how some music transcends culture, race, and religion... its magic.

I got to see Hank, Jr. in a free concert in Temple, TX, before he got very famous. One of my grandson's loved his music, and I was able to make it possible for him to see Hank, Jr. before he passed away. This song brought tears to my eyes. (I grew up on a farm, too.)

Hank, Sr. was a legend. When he died, the country music industry tried to turn Hank, Jr. into him. When Jr. rebelled the industry turned their backs on him. He created his own sound and the rest is history. He often pokes them in the eye, especially in Family Tradition. You should listen to I'll Never Get Out of this World Alive from the album Three Hanks. It is Junior with his son Hank the third, and Hank Sr.'s music filtered in. Awesome (and I don't use that word frivolously). Although Hank the third sounds so much like Sr., he went his own way with music, too.

You should look up the history on Hank Williams Jr. When he was young, he was Mt climbing and fell over 500 ft and crushed his skull and almost died. That's why he never takes off the hat or glasses. He's a miracle.

Your dad must be a good man. We teach ourselves how to do everything. Self taught is the best method!!!

You guys are blowing the hell up lol I didn’t even realize

His dad was Hank Williams Sr., who wrote "I Saw The Light", "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry", "Hey Good Lookin", "Move It On Over" and countless others. They tried to make Hank Junior sing like his daddy but he did it his own way. Now, when you listen to Hank III.....he sounds JUST like his grandpa....but with a punk feel. Shout out to your dad! Love country folks , honest people and reactions. I hope y'all grow and prosper!

I'm going to tell my age now...I saw Hank Williams Jr. in concert in 1983. I was a senior in high school.

Hank has a song for everything.

Wow! One of the best country songs ever! No joke, a country boy can survive. Great reaction!! Y'all were great. Hank Williams Jr is real country. Nothing fake about that fella!

Hank Jr. is a really good country artist but his father Hank Williams is perhaps the most important artist in the history of country music. It is because of Hank that the phrase "Country Music is the white man's blues" is a truism. Check out "You Cheating Heart" or my own personal favourite "Kaw Liga".

I used to wake my uncle up with Slim Whitman full volume on high speed on the record player.. sounded like the chipmunks. He used to get so mad at me. Miss that man.

Hank Williams is a "founding father" of Country Music, as we know it today. This was "Hank Jr.", his son. There is now "Hank III" making his own music. Check out Hank Jr. singing "Family Tradition"

HANK WILLIAMS SR. was one of the Great Country Singers back in the 50's., and HANK WILLIAMS JR. Followed his Dad in Singing Country Music his way. He's a good Friend of, ALAN JACKSON. The song, Country Boys Can Survive, came Out in 1981. I've cleaned his Jet Airplane when he was in., Greenville, SC. F.P.

Grew up in the country then moved to the city for a job. Super loved it at first...just how convenient everything was. After about five years, I was over it and couldn't wait to get out. Bought an acre of land in a rural area. Have chickens, rabbits and a garden and I can see the stars again. I don't think I could ever go back to city living. Family Tradition by Hank Williams is also a great one by him.

I grew up in the suburbs but I've always loved everything about the country. Old school camping, fishing, hunting trapping, etc.

Hank Williams Jr was the one who always did the song for the NFL GAME.

“Mama’s don’t let your babies grow up to be Cowboys” Willie and Waylon

My great grandparents homestead in Montana was 40 miles from anywhere and they had to be prepared for anything. I feel you Amber, I grew up the same way. Miss it.

The older country music, so much better than today's. There are a few exceptions.

Nothing wrong with being a country boy as long as that country boy has morals and love in his heart. To respect others for their differences. We all are Americans! Right?

Chances are people already told you all that this is Hank Williams Junior. His father was a country music singer in the 40s and early 50s. He was a legend. You should listen to. I’m so Lonesome I could cry by Hank Williams. 8:07

Country guy, here...my first time firing a gun was when I was 9. My parents had a pistol for protection (my dad was an over-the-road trucker and was away from home a lot), and they would take me with them whenever they would go for target practice. I got my own first gun for Christmas when I was 12, a Marlin bolt action .22 rifle, and was allowed to take it out into the woods by myself. My folks were confident that I had heeded their warnings and teachings; I knew a gun isn't a toy but a tool. Never really one for hunting unless absolutely necessary (no hate for hunters, though, of course), I focused more on the precision aspect of shooting. At my high school, there were guns displayed in just about every other vehicle (lots of my classmates headed straight from school to the woods during hunting season)...and no one ever thought about using one because of a problem with someone, not even after getting their ass kicked in a fight. It simply wasn't even a consideration. We do, however, make our own whiskey and our own smoke, too...sipped on some mighty fine 'shine and puffed a few tasty pipes whilst camping with friends over the 4th of July weekend. I moved to the city when I was 30, but it didn't take long for the woods to call me back home. Yeah...it's a 120-ish mile round trip to the nearest mall, but the peace and relaxation more than make up for such inconveniences. I don't even have to lock my doors at night or when I'm not home 🤘

You're listening to Hank Williams JUNIOR...his father (Hank Williams) was a legend as well. The Hank's dont play...they tell you you like it is. Country folk DO stay ready for anything. They dont WANT or NEED anything from this government and they stay ready to fight it or fight for their own when things crash. We believe our Constitution gives us the right to keep and bare arms and so we wont be caught in a situation where we cant defend ourselves or the ones we love...or even other people. I've lived in both...born and raised in Chicago or suburbs...spent most of my life after that in the country.

He's Hank Williams Sr changed country music he's this man's dad. Great live! I love the richness of his voice!

It's hard to believe this song is 40 years old, and still timeless

Hank Williams "JR" ! ....his father was a huge country singer

The Blues Man is also a must. All of his songs are amazing.

Hank released this song, wait for it, in January of 1982. It has been a country boy/southern anthem since then. Instantly!! He made this video in 2007 to commemorate its 25th anniversary of the song. It’s still as popular and true to this day. More Hank Jr. please. You won’t be disappointed. You should remember that voice from Monday Night Football. “Are you ready for some football?”

'Family Tradition' is another Hank Jr song you'll have to react to.

No BS, my family only went into town twice a year. We lived off the land, grew everything we ate. No home insulation, no air conditioning, no water or sewer and no complaints. Best years of my life. Some 40 years later, I never get sick.

His dad was the first king of country. 👑

This fella is Hank Williams, JUNIOR! Whose father was the real thing. To my ears, Jr. sounds like hundreds of others churned out by the "country" machine. But once you've heard Hank Sr. you'll know him when you hear him again. Oh, and I've known plenty of country boys who didn't survive.

Hanks father is such an original. A dirt road poet whosesongs will live on and on and on. Hank junior here is very different. Honestly not really my favorite, but nonetheless really good, and he's earned his place in the history of country music. Hank the third is punk country, and while I find some of his music not to my tastes, he's quite good. And now there's Hank the forth, but I haven't listened to him yet. Music runs deep in this family bloodline

One of the greatest country songs of all time

I'd rather be lost in the country than found in the city.

Bocephus is such an intriguing human, talented beyond belief. He lost his dad at such a young age and I feel he battled throughout his young life trying to live up to who his daddy was, but at the same time, not trying to be his dad. Hank Jr is definitely a man's man. Respect.

It's rare in music today to actually have singers with great pipes, who don't cover their weaknesses with synthesized effects.

Watching you guys connect was rewarding. An honest acceptance of the values connects us in many levels. While your on a country roll I have a suggestion that will be a contrast to this one & it will be relevant to you guys as a couple since one is city & the other is country. I think it will be one of your favorites: “Small Town Girl” by Steve Wariner (Beautiful song)

This song still speaks in 2021 and Hank Williams Jr is still awesome. Go Bocephus.

I have a plate-full of catfish settling on my stomach as I write this. Speaking of slow pace of country life, I remember getting into staring contests with a mule. It was just a dumb animal. Of course my will would be greater than his. Nope. And the lady is correct. Locking doors is a foreign idea. I'll often leave the back door open in the summer with a screen that the dogs can travel through. Was a great idea until one dog decided to bring a possum into the house. Turns out it wasn't as dead as she (or I) thought it was.

It can be a great feeling when a song hits home.

Hank Williams Jr., had a near-fatal accident in 1975 that changed the entire course of his life and career. The country icon went climbing on Ajax Peak in Beaverhead County, Mont., on Aug. 8, 1975. The snow beneath him collapsed, and Williams fell 440 feet, fracturing his skull in multiple places. Williams was not expected to live, and his recovery took multiple surgeries over two years

I LOVE YOU TWO!!!!! "Y'all all stay ready for everything"... YES WE DO!!!!!

I'm impressed with your reaction. I love everything about you two kids. Peace and love. In 1975 Hank was in the mountains and the snow fell out from underneath him. He fell over 400 feet and had multiple scull fractures. He's tough as hell.
