I said let me read the replies and comments before I make the same comment probably most of you did! Yes this song resonates now more than it probably ever did. I guess I said it anyway. Oh well. We need to reform the news media. You would think Joseph Goebbels was in charge again!
My great uncle, who raised my father and then raised me, worked for the same factory for 40+ years, they closed the plant suddenly just locked the gates and no one but the supervisors knew. Threw them to the dirt. He doesn't know what to do now, lost his pickup & is in deep debt. I'm only 20 and I'm working my ass off 70 hours a day and I give him 40% of my weekly checks so he can survive. I'm barely surviving myself but he raised me, so I'm taking care of him.
I played this in an empty arena while everything was shut down as i worked on seats and painted... imagining where Hank Jr stood when he played there!!! Music helped to keep me alive... thanks Hank, cant wait to see you again!!!
He sings about the stuff that rips your F’n heart out, lots of people worked their asses off for years and years just to be let go short of retirement, lost everything they had in the world, yeh it’s pretty messed up what corporate America does to its employees.
I'm 55 & I grew up w/Bocephus. Man let me tell you, there is no other life. I just can not stomach watching how things are going these days. Never in my life would I have believed the world around me would turn out this way. You guys will have a long row to hoe on your own, we can't do it for you. Good luck young mule.
This is real country music. By a 100% bonafide true Country Legend. Most of what they try to pass off as country today can't hold a candle this. And yes we the people can tell the difference
"We're going to need that truck, when they come to take the house away" Reminds me of my childhood. Whatever you may think, it can always get worse, but it can also get better.
That would be because Bocephus has been through some serious sh*t in his life...both self inflicted and otherwise...he's lived through so many of those Williams Family Traditions he one sang about.
I love this video. The thing I love about it the most is Hank fills it with regular everyday hardworking Americans. Those are the people I want to be around.
we got word today our plant will be shut down mid 2024-25. I have 1 daughter, a wife, and another girl on the way. I pray for the 2500 men and women employed by US9 and their families. It will tear our town and local economy apart. God help us all.
Oath Amoeba are you serious dude the economy is booming the unemployment rate is at a 50 year low hate trump love him it don’t matter you have to recognize the economy is amazing rn
This is how the World has become. I never thought it could get this hard to survive. I am blessed to have lived the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's was the best of years. ✌️💗🙏
I don't usually comment on music videos. But between the gougin' of my check to make ends meet, i sure hope to hell i get to go see Hank Jr before he hangs it up for good. He's one of the few guts n gravel, blood and dirt and whiskey soaked bad ass spit in yer eye Americans we have left and I'd be honored as hell to watch a man like that play real American country. Preach on, Bocephus.. preach on!
I'm only 16 an I'm honestly afraid of growing up into what this nations becoming. I watch politics and I watch the stock market from time to time and I do things other kids think is foolish but this song wholly justifies my actions and the sad thing is that yet again I'm a 16 year old seeing what millions of Americans can't.
Nah. Youre wrong. More jobs went unclaimed last year than you or i could even count. Work hard and do you share and this world will become a better place for it
@@insulman100 yeah you're right Obama was the end of the president's ruining the country into the ground left our companies go out of the country three or four before him did us no good either
That was the year Of the recession I remember I took a job at a school district Did not pay enough I don't see how these poor teachers and staff members can make it Till I saw that myself But for the grace of God is the only Reason why these things Gets done..
this popped up on my home page.. im sorry that your son went in the wrong direction, and since then, you have not posted on youtube. the world is falling apart but we are still here for you. I met you back in Lorton, Va back around 1980 or 81. Hang in there.
Trump won't he's a billionaire he isn't one of us you can't make America great again it's a lie the population is lazy selfish entitled he has simple answers to complex questions
NaterTater 99 it's a fake pandemic a plandemic to destroy small business and replace them with big business and big government to maintain power, bring in globalization, trying to get everything online. The fake pandemic creates a pretext to blame a collapse on the virus, a virus that's like the flu. This makes the people poorer and companies like Amazon richer. With 5G they will try and bring in smart cities and self driving cars and make people more isolated.
The virus that caused the topic of this song started long before 2020 it is the virus of globalization the virus of internationalism the virus used to destroy the white working class for decades
@@jamiebell1690 no I don't but I've seen plenty of videos of doctors and nurses speaking out, videos of empty hospitals, and hundreds of twitter posting from families complaining that their family member who died have covid put on their death certificates when they had cancer for several months prior, heart attack, one person kicked by a horse in the head, but when asking the doctor they just said following government guidelines.

It’s quite incredible how a song of 09 fits perfectly into today’s time . Due the Covid virus so many factories has shut down and people fell into the unemployment line and it’s like it becomes day by day more , and The politician really do nothing about it tbh. However, I pray for every single one of y’all that everything Turns out to be a better time and that you get back on track ❤️
He’salways been a straight shooter ,you can just tell that with a select few . My wife and I use to go see him back in the 70s ,when we were really having a hard time paying the bills . We had bought tickets to go see him in Richmond he was playing in a show with David Allen Coe on the card . I had bought those ticket’s ,two months in advance just so happened where I was working something had come up and we had to work . I told my boss I had bought these tickets he told me he didn’t care he wouldn’t budge Even told me if I went I wouldn’t have a job Monday I went anyway (he fired me ) LOL My wife and I have been married almost 40 years and we still laugh about difficult times and this story always comes up . Hank is great My Hero of the music world I hope I go before him
No it was the Obama/Biden administration. This was that life. Now it is even worse but some people been preaching this and warning people since then. It is sad many did not listen and now it is worse! Unbelievable

I live in Canada and i respect you hard working men down there is the USA. I also love this song i can sing it from the heart cause i know how you guys feels too.
This song reminds of the Current Covid19 pandemic the tough times the American people are facing with no help just came across the song yesterday! Awesome 😎 song Hank!
Beg to differ sir. I personally like this, family tradition, kaw liga, whiskey bent and hell bound, a country boy can survive and more but I’m going to listen to more music
It’s ridiculous to see how they’ve done this country. They got a bail out, then decided to close majority of the plants here and ship em out. It’s a damn shame and I feel sorry for them people working in them plants.
Same thing happened in Syracuse NY. GM, Chrysler, Carrier, and few others gone like a fart in the wind. Crippled the area and probably not coming back. It's sad.
And government motors closed the crosstown plant and hour from me. Butt they make cars in Mexico still and their people keep on flooring our borders demanding we take care of them. I say no way take care of our own people 1st and our veterans .
I work hard love JESUS and, take care of my family to the best that I can and them some. This song hurts to see and hear but it's truth. People wake up.
This song hits the nail on the head! This country has turned into a rich man's land off the backs of us hard working Americans! Thanks Hank! I live a couple miles from a textile mill that happened just like this God bless America!

Cycles of manipulation are getting dirtier but the game is always the same. Stay strong boys! 💪
Bo knows which way the wind blows. He is not afraid to call a spade a spade. If you love this country then you gotta love Bocephus too.

How are you able to work 70 hours a day? 😁

Your a great person. With God all things are possible. Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
This song is so relevant for today
“We’re gonna need that truck..” every southern man hanging on to their income felt that.
😂😂
Aint that the truth
God damn Hank will always be the voice of the people
Trent Pousson you’re god damn right brother!! Long live the Republic
He tells the truth, these liberals want to just give this country away, after all the sacrifice people went through to make her great
Over on the next block, there's a repo man for Dodge..... FUCK man ........... we NEED that TRUCK MAN!
Hell yes he will
True that
I still play this song EVERY shift I'm working Hank. Love and respect from Sweden!
I’m from USA and I do the same. Keep on working hard brother.
I played this in an empty arena while everything was shut down as i worked on seats and painted... imagining where Hank Jr stood when he played there!!! Music helped to keep me alive... thanks Hank, cant wait to see you again!!!

I’m 32 years old and just started listening to hank and man I’m glad I found him his music hits my soul like no other musician had ever done
He sings about the stuff that rips your F’n heart out, lots of people worked their asses off for years and years just to be let go short of retirement, lost everything they had in the world, yeh it’s pretty messed up what corporate America does to its employees.
Good for you!! Check out his dad for some classic old country songs and a voice to be reckoned with! Enjoy.
I'm 55 and found his music when I was 15 share cropping on a orange Grove with my family...
I'm 55 & I grew up w/Bocephus. Man let me tell you, there is no other life. I just can not stomach watching how things are going these days. Never in my life would I have believed the world around me would turn out this way. You guys will have a long row to hoe on your own, we can't do it for you. Good luck young mule.

HANK JR👍
Here it is September of 2023 and I think alot of people are feeling this
i smell an exact repeat of this exact song in 2022-2023
"We're going to need that truck, when they come to take the house away"
Reminds me of my childhood.
Whatever you may think, it can always get worse, but it can also get better.
Hank Jr. has some serious soul for a Country singer!
That would be because Bocephus has been through some serious sh*t in his life...both self inflicted and otherwise...he's lived through so many of those Williams Family Traditions he one sang about.
My country has forgotten me , but I have not forgotten those.
I love this video. The thing I love about it the most is Hank fills it with regular everyday hardworking Americans. Those are the people I want to be around.
God Bless you Hank and all the Country Folks💪USA and Trump 4-Ever!!!All the best from Switzerland

Did you go Hank not going to hang it up Birmingham it was Worth 7hr drive.
seen him 3x back in the 90's unbelievable performance even when he was drunk on stage for 2 of 3 shows
Love Jr.I bet he could be a good president.
Indeed
Wanna see him in July? I have a few extras message me
2024 I'm definitely feeling this. Can't buy no clothes or food
I'm only 16 an I'm honestly afraid of growing up into what this nations becoming.

Nah. Youre wrong. More jobs went unclaimed last year than you or i could even count. Work hard and do you share and this world will become a better place for it
born free I do, and unemployment rate is lowest in history. Only people that don’t work is the ones who don’t want to
Im 11 years old and don't know what the world will be when I'm about 20 we need to fix it now!!!!!
And if you agree like
This song bout sums up the last eight years!! Good song Hank!!!
8 years my ass I don't where you're from but here in WV this shit started in the mid 80s

11 or so years later, this song raises a hair on the back of my neck, seen and been through so much of the things in this video
Me too son.. but we gotta keep on keeping on.
Qlmost brought me to tears on how real this song is today
Love Hank Jr He tells it like it is.
That was the year Of the recession I remember I took a job at a school district Did not pay enough I don't see how these poor teachers and staff members can make it Till I saw that myself But for the grace of God is the only Reason why these things Gets done..

This is the first video I ever like on RUclips, I liked it 7 years ago and I still don't regret it.
one of the real country song out there fuck that radio bs. that ain't country
Never gets old when it holds truth
Hank Jr. doesn’t always hit home runs but when he does it’s a grand slam outta the park just like this song here
Song way above ahead of way of its time
Before the democrats were bat shit crazy progressives
No it was the Obama/Biden administration. This was that life. Now it is even worse but some people been preaching this and warning people since then. It is sad many did not listen and now it is worse! Unbelievable
Blatant records gotta be my favorite country folk thank you hank .
So many hard working, honest Americans are living this song this Holiday Season. Please pray for them, everyone. Lord help us all. 🙏
He's my favorite by far since I was 6
This song says so much. More & more ppl feeling these blues

Middle finger to those that dislike this song, this is real music
We paid our dues
Song reminded me of what happened in Janesville wi when the GM plant closed Down...
It’s ridiculous to see how they’ve done this country. They got a bail out, then decided to close majority of the plants here and ship em out. It’s a damn shame and I feel sorry for them people working in them plants.
Same thing happened in Syracuse NY. GM, Chrysler, Carrier, and few others gone like a fart in the wind. Crippled the area and probably not coming back. It's sad.
