Hank was the real deal. He didn't sell out, which cost him in the country music community back in the day, and several of his songs talk about it. People my age who listened to him gave up on modern country music. And rarely listen to anything after 1990.

Until the interstate highway system was built most people didn't travel more than ten or twenty miles from home in their lives, it was too difficult getting up and down those mountains on rough, winding two-lane roads. You had to make whatever you needed or know someone who could, because there was no Wal-Mart.

[@CyberNut930]

@@dc4457 have you seen the pot holes in WV? It’s still difficult getting up and down those roads lmao

[@dc4457]

@@CyberNut930 The road I grew up on in WV passed over an abandoned mine tunnel. A section about twenty feet across was continually subsiding and every time it sank 6-8" and the school bus has having trouble getting over, the state road would come along and fill in the depression with more asphalt. Rinse and repeat for a decade or two. I guess they finally filled up the tunnel because last time I passed that way it was relatively smooth and didn't look like a recent patch job.

[@danielstewart7163]

I am a hillbilly and damn proud of it. Everything he sings is true, when my wife and I were married we basically lived off our garden and what I brought home out of the woods. Hillbillies, aka country folk, are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. You treat them with respect and they'll ask you to put your feet under their table. Piss them off and they might shoot you off their porch. Where I live if you knock on someone's door at 1 am, show some respect and the whole house will be up. Asking you if you want something to drink, figure out your problems and help you on your way. Also it would be a rare man that would take payment unless he had to buy parts or something. Not for labor, just the parts. Oh, by the way, it's totally acceptable to buy something for his family or a drink or 2.

Hank Jr. really means this song. August 8, 1975 He and friends were hunting mountain goats on Ajax Peak in Montana. While they were crossing a snow field the snow below Hank gave way and he ended falling 440 feet down the face of the mountain. According to him most of his face was ripped off in the fall. He had multiple skull fractures and the remoteness of the site caused a six hour recovery to get him to a hospital. He went through multiple surgeries over the next two years and it was unknown if he would be able to sing again. He wears a full beard and sunglasses to cover the scars. All the rest of the past 46 years have likely been gravy for him.

I was so lucky to grow up in the country. Daddy taught all of us to hunt, even us girls. Mom could grow anything in the garden and we had a BIG one. (Think 1 acre of veggies each year) and Grandma taught us how to home can and store EVERYTHING. The veggies, meats, and the basics of how to smoke fish. When Covid hit hard in 2020 and the stores weren't always stocked full, no one in our neighborhood went without. We made sure of that. We shared vegetables, canned meats from the year before, even eggs from the chickens and milk from our goats. This past spring I helped 4 families in our neighborhood start their own small, family sized gardens.

I’m from Texas and grew up the same way. And I don’t care what they’re making in a five star restaurant, country cooking passed from generation to generation will always take the blue ribbon.

We grew up learning how to hunt and fish, so we would ALWAYS have a food source no matter what, learned about gardening from our grandparents, and made our own fun growing up. Every person who grew up in the south knows exactly what they have to do to make it through, and if you ever have questions ask them, they’ll tell you how. I thank god I grew up this way because I don’t really worry about what I’ll do if the world just crashes one day. Southern people can be some of the most helpful, hard working, and humble people you’ll ever meet 🫶

What everyone else does is not our business and we respect all races of people. And living off the land will definitely teach you a lot. And the biggest thing it’s so peaceful out there!

[@JohnnyRebKy]

Glad y’all enjoyed it!!! Hanks music is part of southern culture and there is room enough for everybody 👍😎. It’s not white, black, or any other color. It’s rural country people of all colors sharing a common culture in the south 🎸 Just some bonus Info….it was a old black man who taught Hank Williams SR to play guitar and sing the blues. Hank was highly influenced by black blues men. Hank SR began mixing a blues sound with the “ hillbilly” music of the time and its really the birth of what we now call country music. Of course later his son Hank JR was also highly influenced by the black musicians of the time like fats domino, lightning Hopkins, and so on. So this music is something ALL colors of southern people can claim as their heritage 👍. But If it wasn’t for the black southern blues men of the 20s 30s 40s we would not have country music as we now know it. Thank you 🙏 for the fantastic music your black ancestors gave us !

Hey for all you who hear the line homemade wine. Do you know you can make wine from fruit juice in 30 days? No federal tax. Just juice, SUGAR, YEAST AND TIME. So open up to learning from anyone. Search youtube if you want to blow your mind on alcohol making in your house for very little cash.

[@herrzimm]

PS: The honest truth is, ANYONE from ANY background, can learn how to survive in as a "country folk" if they are WILLING to put in the work. Learning how to plant your own crops is easy to do. The hard part is NOT the planting or harvesting your crops. It is the DAILY need to ensure they aren't being infecting with insects, or getting diseased, making sure there is enough water and nutrients in your soil to grow what you want to grow, knowing when you should plant your seeds as well as WHAT you should plant in general. Seeing how some regions grow better crops than others, you will be wasting a whole "season" trying to grow corn if your soil is better suited for beans or carrots. Make sure you keep at least 3-4 dogs, especially something small like a Jack Russell Terrier to let run free to keep away the snakes, rats, mice, birds, and other larger animals that might want to feed off your crops. Jack Russell for the small stuff, Beagle/Retriever to scare away foxes, opossums, or even rabbits and deer. And MAYBE something like a Doberman for a "true watch dog", or simply more aggressive animals like foxes can be if cornered. Hunting is up to YOU, but if you are WILLING to go hunting, make sure you know your gun safety and the proper gun to use. Fishing is SIMPLE, even if the act of unhooking the fish is too much you can find someone to help. CLEANING your fish is one of the most basic things to learn, as cooking with scales still attached can be annoying as hell. Possibly, but highly recommended you do NOT do. Just be sure that you KNOW these basic rules: 1) Be willing to put in the work. 2) Your neighbors are NOT JUST your friends, but your BIGGEST HELP! So you keep them close, even if that means putting in an extra 3 hours a day to help them. Because when YOU need an extra set of hands, they will be the first ones to help YOU WHEN YOU NEED IT! 3) Respect and manners will do more for you than money EVER will, and it costs NOTHING to give to someone else. 4) At the end of the day, when all is said and done, being able to sit back in a rocking chair, talking to your neighbors about what is going on in your lives and children's lives, while enjoying your home-grown watermelon or cantaloupe and drinking some iced tea ... Well, those will be the memories that you cherish the most and want your own children to enjoy as they grow up too. THAT is why so many "country folk" will remain "country folk" for generations. It is the memories of being a "close-knit communities" that you can't find anywhere else that you cherish more and more, as you can recall doing it at grandma's lap and watching your own grandchild sitting in your lap learning the same lessons in life that you learned.

It's a song about being self sufficient and living a simple life. It's also a clapback aimed at the people who look down on country folk as (insert any number of derogatory terms). My Grandma lived through the Great Depression on an Illinois farm and they survived because they could grow their own food, raise and butcher their own animals and make their own clothes, and neighbors helped each other. On the other hand, those living in the cities did poorly when the facade built up around them crumbled to the ground.

Country folks are self sufficient , grow their food in the garden, know how to hunt (15 million hunting licenses sold yearly so they are trained marksman and that's not counting the ones who just have guns and like to shoot but do not hunt), know how to fish (trot line) and know how to work together. If the economy fails, if a civil war breaks out, etc....the city ppl would have no idea how to survive and god help them if they try coming into the country trying to take from the county folk.

Skinning/Gutting a deer/buck isn't that hard to be honest, with a Trout too, you just cut up from their pee hole, until their neck and then run your thumb down the spine and it gets rid of the guts and innards, and then wash it in the water, cut off the head and your good to go! As long as you've got the deer propped up and spread, it only takes 30 mins to an hour after doing it for years. We usually let them hang for a few days after gutted to cure the meat a little (Live in Maine) and it's usually 25 to 35 degrees around here during hunting season, you can leave them out for a couple days. I haven't bought meat at a grocery store in over 20 years! Me and my brother always tag out every year for deer, and then we also raise our own Pigs, and chickens! My wife grows our garden in the summer, she's got one of the best green thumbs ever, thankfully Weed is legal here, so we have our MMJ garden, and then our Vegetable garden.

This brings back child hood memories when he was talking bout fishing and plowing. makes me think of going fishing with my dad even though i dont eat fish still had a great time and when we use to have a garden when i was a child, and we didn't have a plow we had shovels hoes and spades then we got a tiller and that would be the best vegetables and fruits

If you want to do the country life, It’s pretty good here in Montana. Love you two God Bless you.

I’m from a very rural, mountain town and we played this song on our high school basketball warmup playlist. I think the newer generations have stopped playing it but we played it for years. Other teams would get shook af when we came out to this and started howling (huskies were our mascots).

The point of skinning a buck is to make your own clothes if needed to - very few people can live off the land anymore. I am including me in that.

[@mikeb9214]

Yall are hilarious lol I've actually seen Hank Jr 5 times live in concert.

[@theidajawho]

Seen him 4 times, 3 in Memphis at the Mid South Coliseum and once in Paris, TN at the General Store.

[@brentleary2227]

Whenever you're ready to learn how to skin let me know. Anything from deer to coyote. It would be my honor to pass that knowledge on to you sir

[@757optim]

When Hank says "I can run a trot line", 99% of folks hear "trout line".

[@HealingMontanaNana]

You are right, I don't know how many times people think it is trout line. We call them set line instead of trotline. They are the same thing just regional differences. 👍

[@HealingMontanaNana]

@@mattbecham597 It's still a trotline, a set line or trawl line (all three are accurate).🤣 Most people would know what you are talking about if you call it a trout line.👍

[@HealingMontanaNana]

@@mattbecham597 I thought you may have been but you can never be too sure. Thanks for replying. 😊

[@wgj4everlong426]

that's why in my head I sing the line as trap line,never ran a trot line in my life,not big enough rivers around here I guess,but I have ran a trap line for pelts,hard work

[@HealingMontanaNana]

@@wgj4everlong426 Trapping is one thing I've never done. I've known a couple trappers and they worked way harder than I would want to, even though I like fur (socially unacceptable in today's times. 😳🤣)

You guys are cool, and I will teach you how to survive, Burgaw N.C.

[@edwarddoddy2130]

What's so scary is the times we're currently living In is about to become actual reality to the song.

[@bradstcyr4459]

its easy just dont hit the intestines or you will spoil the meat. my grandpa even taught me what bugs i can eat. he was para rescue in vietnam. he was a amazing man. RIP grandpa

[@rorytribbet6424]

Hank Williams is the country version of rappers like easy e that kind of rap off beat and sloppily but still sound so good

[@jimh.5546]

Man, y'all are cool as hell! I love your reaction. We should hang out and drink some shine, woooooh

[@marcmurph6998]

I love you both! I see ya'll grooving to the music. You got "American" written all over you! God bless you both!

[@diehardAMD]

What’s amazing is that there is not just that cross cultural respect, you two didn’t freak about the Confederate flag belt buckle. I’m from Indiana and we recognize that the South hold that flag today as a heritage and culture aspect, not racism. Much respect to you both. PS I have been making a time capsule and I’m going to put this in. It reflects the respect have as Americans.

[@gladys4246]

Y'all should react to "you never even call me by my name" by David Allen Coe

[@Backwoods.burnin]

Y'all come with me. I gotcha, we'll show you good people what's up.

[@MNDrummer]

City people or country folk? Who would you rather be with if your life depended on it? :)

[@redheadedneighbor]

2 dollars and a lighter? That makes me sick to my stomach. That’s awful. 😳🥺

[@dangerousdylan6262]

As a dude that grew up in alabama we grew up hunting, fishing, and farming just for fun lol so yes us country Boys can survive and we also bleed red, white, and blue so if times get tough bring ur family down so we can feed and take care of yall we ask nothing in return ur presence on that day is all that would ever be needed

[@andreagagne2377]

Well damn, im not a country girl and this song made me proud lol.

[@fredcloud9668]

A country boy says what goes on in the city better stay in the city.

[@cindyv1401]

ITS A MUST !!! OPEN ARMS BY JOURNEY ❣️

[@BiornBear]

I can get everything I need at Walmart lol

[@Tbirdhaynes]

A classic! This song will live as long as the planet earth lives. He actually rewrote the lyrics to this song after 9/11 and called it America Can Survive. I would suggest checking that out. Digging your reactions so far.

[@whyymee9141]

you guys are great - I enjoyed watching you - I grew up in the swamps of Florida and this song sums it up. We would swim in gator infested lakes and sleep in sleeping bags in the weeds next to the lake (or river) when we went camping (which was a lot). Never worried about snakes or bugs as it was just a normal thing to do. Thanks again for your video, it made me smile...

[@kimberlinibambini1988]

Facts- and love me some Hank Jr.! The movie of his life called “Living Proof” is fantastic too! He fell from a mountain and busted his face so badly that the Dr.s had to literally re-build it like a puzzle- Literal miracle he made it! 💜💙👍

[@froggie1075]

I am a country girl and love me some country music. We can grow our own food and catching our food and hunting. We can survive better than a city folk. I was raised on the bayou in Louisiana. Even the girls know how to skin a buck.

[@davidhill5897]

Thank you! Love your reaction.I grew up in the city as a kid, then my parents retired and moved us to the country where I had a whole new life. I spent a number of year’s working as a cowboy for a livening throughout the Midwest. What a hard working great life. Happiness is between you ears. Good people are good people no matter where they live.

[@bruceborneman]

Who doesnt want to be a Country Boy after that?

[@richardkeel4875]

Born and raised in the country, I can't remember not having a garden, fishing , hunting , cutting firewood for the winter. It's a part of life. I know that BJ would dig it out here. No stop lights, heavy traffic ,crowded sidewalks only once a year during the fall festival and only sounds of nature and your music playing. Wish you were here guys. GB ya brother and sister. I love your reactions. Keep it going.

[@markharrison5712]

KILLER VID !!!!!!!!!!!!! OLD AS THE DAY IS LONG !!!!!!!!!!!!! Sad to think ??? Punkass ..... this is is what a last stand for you . Only the best to and your's .
