    I got hurt at work several years ago and was bleeding out in a hurry. The guy that stopped the bleeding, and made this typing possible, came from the WV coal mines. This song always reminds me of that. I'm a country boy but I couldn't help myself, thank God there was another one there.

      I would hope you support the 2A. When the Black Panthers started walking around with their AK47s (as was their gd right) suddenly the idea of "gun control" was born. Google it. The last thing the government wanted to see was a group of people they had previously oppressed with no problems suddenly exercising their rights in a serious way.

Many of them were stationed here during WW2, he would bring them them pheasant shooting and trouting on the Norfolk Broads.

      @@tommyd4325 You got alot of growing to do. The democrats have allowed 20 million new illegal immigrants into the USA since 2020 from over 100 countries in the world. Do you want to pay for that. Not only that but they are bringing in drugs which our killing our people. Fentanyl killed one of my best friends thats made in china and brought into america through the cartels on the southern border. Biden reversed all the immigration policy trump had established. How old are you? Im 34 years old and have the democrats destroy my this country my family faught and died for. You got alot of balls commenting on a hank williams jr song about America, wanting to bring people in here that werent born here. Good for the guy above who became a legal citizen, but for the millions of illegals that have recently come here. They need to go back to where they came from. You need to do your research and really look at all the facts, not comment based upon how you feel.

      The majority of Republicans don't want to completely shut down the border and stop good people from coming to chase the American dream. What we do want to do is stop the open border and slow the influx of human trafficking, drugs and people that are only coming here to do harm to our citizens and the American way of life. This individual came here legally and is just as much American as the rest of us. Way to go dude. We could use more people like you

    This song is just what my Grandpa instilled in me. The belief that you can do whatever you set your mind on. He served in WW2 and fought in the jungles of the Phillipines. Was a Deacon in his church. Could do anything, from creating patents,playing bass in his country band (The Peacemakers) to building his own boats to commercial fish when he retired. He taught me how to survive in this world and he meant the world to me. God bless him, he was a great man.

I love being self sufficient as much as I can, I've learned a lot about agriculture from my pops, I've learned a lot about cars and trucks and repairing shit, learned a lot about nature and being outdoors, and most importantly I learned to respect people and respect myself. I have a lot more to learn but the Williams family's music inspires me to be a good man. And respect to everyone surviving today's bullshit and bettering themselves as they go on.

    I'm not much of a country listener but that's probably because modern country is basically pop with a country accent. I wish country music nowadays was more like this!

    I'm English, I live in the city of Liverpool, but the English folk all came from a rural background before the factories robbed us of that life with a promise of things being easier. Respect to all country folk wereever they might be in this wide world. You grow the food, raise the food and without you we'd be nothing. Thanks. From a city boy. Great song also.
