    His Dad Hank Williams was probably the greatest Country singer of all time, he was also a hard drinker and hell raiser and he died at 29. So when Hank Jr. says he is following a family tradition, that is what he is talking about it.

    • @keithgraham8588
      @keithgraham8588 2 года назад +18

      Only the chorus alludes to that, the rest of the song however is a rebellion song because Jr. liked to mix southern rock with honkey tonk and people in Nashville didn't like it.

      Just here to say I was going to say this same thing. :) I guess it's not obvious that Jr is a 2nd person and not the same Hank Williams to folks who don't know. But yeah he's the son of one of the founders of country music and Jr actually helped to push country into a new era (that folks where uncomfortable with and therefore put pressure on his lifestyle choices).

    Awesome drinking sing-a-long song for sure. This song is also a huge hit at Hanks concerts. Over the years audiences have started their own little chant add ons the the song particularly through the chorus. It typically goes like this: Don’t ask me Hank why do you drink. Audience: To get drunk Hank why do you roll smoke. Audience: to get stoned. Why do you live like the songs that you wrote. Audience: to get laid. The whole crowd will sing loud as they can through the whole song, but experienced Hank Jr concert goers will belt out the add in lines during the chorus.

    In concert, the chorus ALWAYS turns into a call and response with the audience. When Hank sings "Why do you drink" the crowd answers "TO get drunk". And "why do you roll smoke" gets "To get stoned" and "Why must you live out the songs that you wrote" is answered "To get laid" Of course, the same thing happens when a bunch of drunks are sitting around a fire listening to it on a phone. Or so I've heard.

  • @scottdonohue3379
    @scottdonohue3379 2 года назад +107

    The family that is questioning him in the song is the Country Music family. Also if you didn’t know Hank nearly died in the 70’s when he fell over 400’ while hiking up in the mountains. At first he wasn’t expected to live. He had a badly fractured skull and his face was badly mangled. That is where his now traditional look comes from with the full beard, sunglasses and hat. He did that to cover all the scars and had to go through quite a few surgeries and a couple of years of physical therapy etc to recover.

    Hank Williams Jr. is the son of Country Music Legend Hank Williams. One of the original bad boys of country music. Between Alcohol and drugs, Sr. Was gone far too soon at 29. Jr. was groomed by his mama to do his daddy's songs from a very early age. Play daddy's songs. Check. Grow up and want to make his own music? Thats what this is about. Until the 90's when technology allowed for it, he had never sung with his daddy. They sliced video together of both Sr. & Jr. Singing There's a tear in my beer. Hank Sr. Died when Junior was only 3. That was special to watch back then

    It's important to remember the historical weight Hank Jr. was carrying. If you made a pyramid of all the Country & Western stars and songs, his daddy, Hank Sr. would be at the very tip top of that pyramid. Lots of pressure on a young kid who wants to make it in C&W himself. His father, however, was an alcoholic and died one night in the back seat of a car traveling after one of his shows. He was 29, yet is pretty much considered the very top C&W singer-songwriter of all time. Hank Jr. is just carrying on a family tradition...

    Hanks father is the considered the father of country music. He is a legend. He was a notorious bad-ass that drank, did drugs, and broke all the rules. Hank Sr. is considered one of the greatest songwriters of all time. He changed music forever. Not just country music. He sadly died at the age of 29 just when he was hitting his prime. He left behind a catalog of songs in his short time that is almost unrivaled. He was so prolific and talented he's still appreciated to this day. While there were many stars that came before him, he is considered by many to be the first country music super star that transcended the genre. Hank Jr. is a mega star in his own right. He came on country music in late 70s and 80s and had some monster hits. His son, Hank the 3rd, is also a talented singer and song writer. His son actually looks and sounds more like Hank Sr. than Jr. does. They do indeed have a great family tradition.

    Hank Williams was pretty much the first country superstar, and a wild young man. Hank Jr., is also a superstar. He's just a super talented musician and song writer. The guy is a force of nature, and also really wild in his young days. His life story is pretty fascinating. Anyway, stay on the Hank Jr. train for a while. "A Country Boy Can Survive", "Born to Boogie", "All my Rowdy friends are Comin' Over Tonight", Whisky Bent and Hell Bound"...

    The Country Music industry was on his case at the time he wrote this. There was a lot of clean cut expectations to play the opry. However what Hank JR was saying the very "family" that didnt want him on the opry if he didnt straighten up was doing everything he was just hiding it. At the start of the song he says "his family is disowning him"

He lived a wild life and died in 1953 at the age of 29.. And Jr or Bocephus a nickname his daddy gave him. in 1973 Bocephus fell off a mountain and almost died he had to have his face reconstruct that why he said the word bonecutter to the doctor

    In the early days of country, they tried to hide the improprieties of some stars including Hank Williams Sr. He actually had a few vices that was kept quiet. Hank Williams Jr is saying that his behavior, that the country music community discouraged, was just like his Fathers. In essence, most of them had quite a few vices of their own. Hank Williams Jr wasn't widely accepted by the old school country music community when he was young. Hank Sr was a favorite of my parents, they didn't ever like Hank Jr.

    Like others have said, Hank Williams was one of the corner stones of what eventually became modern country. He was a giant, one of the GOAT's in country music. He even influenced early rock and roll in the 50's. Hank Williams Jr. was only 3 when his father Hank Senior died. Hank Jr. only has bits of memories of his dad because his dad was always on the road touring. Hank Senior was a notorious drinker. In this song, the people asking the questions are the rest of the country music industry. By the time this song was written, country music had tamed down a lot and a hard living, drinking, party life style was frowned upon. A lot of country music stars at the time still lived a hard drinking life, but the country music industry hid and covered it up. Hank Williams Jr. reveled in his life style, never hid it and even promoted it, so he was considered an outsider in the country music family at the time. The song Family Tradition was his answer to the country music industry.
