Beechnut is a brand of chewing tobacco and I imagine if you "spit some Beechnut" in someone eyes that would burn like crazy, but he goes on to say he would shoot him with his old .45 so I guess the dude wouldn't have to worry about his eyes burning for very long. If you want to listen to some beautiful ballads by Hank Jr. you should react to "Rainin' in My Heart" or "Heaven Can't Be Found."

[@dreavesthemalkavianphsycia8933]

Beachnut like most chewing tobacco would sting like hell and if not properly washed out could cause temporary blindness. Though as you mention, He'd likely not be seeing much after the .45. then again It's all in shot placement. If I had to guess. I'd wager he'd go for a belly shot. Seems the "revenge" and spite type of placement. He may get to enjoy the beachnut too. Though what hurts worse...the .45. I was always a redman fella myself. redman and a knee shot. I think. but I digress.

[@clitt4730]

Ever grabbed a grasshopper and had one of them spit in your eye? It burns just like any tobacco in the eye would. Very unpleasant, not on the level of pepper spray in intensity but lasts until its all out.

MrLboydReacts think he reacted to Devils Go Down To Georgia.

[@katrinaprescott5911]

I like "Family Tradition" - it reflects on his feelings about the legacy of his famous father, and on the reaction by the country music establishment when he and the other "outlaws" moved away from the tradition styles in the 1970s. If you listen to "All My Rowdy Friends are Coming Over Tonight" be sure and watch the official video. There are cameos from a LOT of country legends.

As an ol country boy myself, I appreciate you reviewing these songs, and at least attempting to understand different cultures. I was in military for 20 years, and I was exposed to allot of different things.... Comes down to how you were raised basically, have a good up bringing and thought to treat people right, you will prolly have less problems in this world.

[@amberhines3979]

I was in High School when this song came out. This was our anthem!! You could hear every high school kid blaring this one in their car everywhere we went. Especially at the barn. And, yes, most of us drove trucks, and most of those trucks had a rope and a gun hanging in the back window. A date for me and my (later) husband was hunting or fishing. Wintertime was for killin hogs on his grandaddy's farm. And, call it what you want, the women were in the kitchen cooking for the men out in the cold doing the hard work. Country people just work different *shrug*

[@evelynmabe7877]

AMEN!

[@PhilsHobbyRoom]

I was in high school also and like you ever car and truck had it coming from the speakers with the rest of his tunes along with CDB and Marshall tucker I grew up in spartanburg South Carolina and met hank jr and knew most of the people in the Marshall Tucker band

What I wouldn't give to go to another " pig picking" !! It was a fall tradition here in southern appalachian mountains. Sometimes it lasted for days. We'd sit around the bonfire at night drink shine, take a toke, shot guns, and talk sh*t, ... lol

Hank always changes lyrics when he's life.. Says nobody pays to listen to a recording... So he jazzes it up lol

[@TanisHalf-Elven]

It only works when he doesnt slide way more syllables into a line than it can hold.

[@livingmirror888]

Ah I was wondering, cuz this was odd. But I can respect that. Although for a first listen I do think the original would've been better. But hey, better than nothing at all! And his live performance was really good.

[@evelynmabe7877]

All musicians do! I was married to one for 34 years, he changed lyrics all the time to suit his mood!

[@bigrig4177]

He did have a friend that was killed in New York City. His name was Michael and sometimes when he sings the song live in concert he will actually say my friend Mike lost his life. Junior does like to change the words of the song when he's singing to how he feels. There is also a Hank Williams III that sounds just like his grandfather and you might want to check him out

[@jimmiemercer8930]

Glad you brought this up True story!

[@marshalltille7770]

I thought he was high or drunk.

[@RESET1776]

Hank would change up the lyrics of the song when he was playing live shows & make it a point of including whatever state he was performing in.

[@evelynmabe7877]

I remember my son in diapers, in the back seat, standing up!, Yes, we didn't have those laws back then! This was his favorite song, and the only part he sang to was damn! He got to cuss!!!! LMAO,

[@bignerdybiker]

Lots of his lyrics were changed based on moods and evolved over time. I probably have 4 versions of tbis song on my phone and each one is different... including instead of using his own .45 he wants to use Grady Jackson (a Sanford & Son character)'s .45

Hank Williams Jr. is a country music legend all on his own. However, his father's country music career is legendary also. You asked what beechnut is and, if I'm not mistaken, I believe beechnut is a type of chewing tobacco. Have a terrific day. Take care.

[@Kirshara85]

Hank is part of a dying breed. He sings what he knows. When seeing him live you can bet that you wont be able to sing along with all of every song because he likes to keep it fresh, he can play every instrument you see on stage (and many that aren't) and that there will be girls dancing somewhere on or just off stage. He thinks highly of himself but I can't say that he is wrong either...\

[@davidhathcock50]

I ain't dead yet, nor or my descendants. Human rights still matter. And so do private rights. I WILL SURVIVE!!!!! Until I'm called home.

[@thatzachguy76]

The thing I love about this song is it puts into perspective that while yes we can survive because of all of this it’s all earned through the sweat and blood you pour out to earn these skills. Country living has always been hard and it requires them to rely on those around us and it’s why you can always trust someone from the country because they live in the community that if you don’t help others they won’t help you. It’s hard living, but all the more rewarding for it. I will say I am proud to have been raised this way and continue to pass it on.

[@Neyonius]

Hank Jr. is my all-time favorite country musician. Been listening since I was born.

[@DarthLoki]

"Country State of Mind", "If Heaven Ain't a Lot Like Dixie", "Family Tradition", "All My Rowdy Friends Have Settled Down", "Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound", "There's a Tear In My Beer" (especially good since they recreated it with his late father as a duet)

[@cbobwhite5768]

You'll never see him, without the hat, beard, and sunglasses. In 1975,he was climbing in Montana and fell almost 500 ft., when the snow gave way. He nearly died and went through a 2 year recovery, with numerous surgeries, to rebuild his busted face. The beard, hat, and glasses hide all the scars. Pretty much, his face would scare Frankenstein's monster.

[@Chicken_Wing91]

There’s a small short documentary of hank jr he had just a mustache and sideburns (it was 1980)

[@hillaryg6320]

Pre accident, he looks so different! Watch him on an episode of Hee Haw! I have seen him without sunglasses post accident though! Either way, he’s awesome!

[@Gutslinger]

Depends.. But most people won't. I did watch an older interview recently where he removed his glasses. Think I even seen him without a hat as well.

Beechnut is chewing tobacco. I love Hank Jr. He is pretty close to the Definition of Country Music. You know, of course, who his father was, but do you know Hank Jr's story? It's incredible, from performing as a young child to his fall down a mountain. He is very Right Wing, but the following suggestions seem to skirt the topic. 'Why Can't We All Get a Long Neck' 'Tear in my Beer' 'That's How They Do It in Dixie' The Conversation (with Waylon Jennings)' 'The F Word (with Kid Rock)' Although the best version of 'The Conversation' is by Alan Jackson, imnsho.

[@DaveyWilliamsPantzNotRequired]

So much talent in this one family. Hank Sr, Jr, III, and even Sam Williams are/were all very talented

[@tammydodge388]

His father was the country legend Hank Williams Sr., and both have lived incredibly hard lives. The song "Family Tradition" talks about some of the times of similar experiences he shared with his dad. Talent runs right down the line as there is a Hank Williams III also. He, however, is of a different genre of music. H.W.III did start out doing some remakes of his grandad's classics that are really good. I am so sorry to hear that you had such a deprived childhood to have never played in mud. Enjoy the fun of catching up! Signed, A Country Girl who has survived!

He is a local here in Henry County, TN. He sent his kids to public school and he does do every day things like going to Lowe's. His son Sam is following in his footsteps. He performed at the marina and Hank was there to watch him. He used to joke with my wife at Lowe's whenever he went there and she was working. He is pretty much an ordinary person and is approachable.

Man... I grew up in the country, lived in the city for college, lived in Japan for a couple years, and then when I came back to the U.S. I started working and setting aside everything I could just so I could get back to living in the country. The calm, the beauty, the freedom, being able to get away from the constant bombardment of social interaction and noise. I'll take the minor inconvenience of having to drive further for everything, because it's the only way to live for me. Grew up riding tractors, dirt bikes, four wheelers, go karts, snowmobiles, etc. Basically, if it had an engine and wheels, we're outside riding it, getting dirty, getting hurt, and having a hell of a time.

I am also living just outside of Atlanta, growing and preserving as much food as I can. Hands still in the soil. Country Boy Can Survive silently playing in the background of my mind and soul.

Fish taste better when they are caught, cleaned and cooked deep fried on a deep in the back yard and the wives and girl friends bring over homemade side dishes. Always made up plates for the older folks in the neighbor hood....there was always plenty. You have the right idea....broaden your horizons...you'll be surprised at what you've missed. I do enjoy listening to you react! Long time fan!

I moved from the city to east Tennessee, so I can kinda relate. I love the culture here, but I don't know how to do the stuff my neighbors can. I also found country music here, like Hank Williams Jr. Love him ❤️

If you want a tear brought to your eye take a look at what happened to ufc fighter Matt Hughes. He nearly died after his vehicle was struck by a train, following an incredibly difficult battle for survival he showed up to watch a fight and as he entered the arena they played this song. Absolutely incredible moment

[@cindylawrence1200]

There r so many places u can go in Georgia with one of those trucks with big wheels. Right by the Chattahoochee, there’s a huge creek with a large waterfall. Good stuff to see

Country Folks Ballad since the 80s. Great song and you picked the best “Live” version available.

[@commanderbell1965]

I was living in LA I became a fan when first heard Country Boy Can Survive

[@billyray6913]

Rural America is great bro! And this song is old but 100% true. You will love the outdoors.

I grew up in NYC I still hunted,Grew vegetables went crabbing, Learned to make wine, Make soap dry meat.. 2 sets of grandparents that raised families during the great depression. They taught me everything just in case and you never know.

My husband was around him for 13 years when he played professional guitar and fiddle. He played with him a few times. I just found his tour jacket from 1987! Vernon Derrick played for Hank for years and he was my husbands neighbor and taught him how to play fiddle. My hubby told me Hank would get on the bus and say okay boys y’all know what I am doing to be doing. No one interrupt me unless you dying. He would then go to the back of the bus and by the time they got to their next destination he has written songs and the music. My husband absolutely loved being around him.

Hank Williams Jr. Changed the lyrics during this live performance from " western skies" to "Montana Skies" because all of his fans and audience no his back story. He fell off a 500 ft. Cliff on the side of a mountain while hunting. It took hours to get him to a hospital and help. His face practically was ripped off. This was sometime in the late 60's or early 70's. The doctors didn't think it was possible for him to live. He was in the hospital for many many months and had to have many surgeries over the years to reconstruct his face. Their is a movie about his life that was put out in the 80's that tells his life story. Btw.... Beechnut is a name brand of chewing tobacco.

[@rohibloodlust]

And props to you for having a open mind and checking out different things

[@charlesdavis9100]

"Montana Sky" Sometimes and artist will change a lyric to something that related to the venue. Beachnut - is a brand of Chewing Tobacco

[@robertmckinnon7003]

In live settings, Hank likes to play around with his lyrics. Following traditions of older Blues and Folk Artists.

[@myowndrum286]

Good on you for broadening your horizons! I've got to tell you, in my mind, nothing beats the sweet smell of loam and a garden bed just ready to plant. I love getting my hands in the dirt. Never wear gloves! lol

[@katttmandoo]

My brother was 15 yrs older then me and absolutely loved Hank jr he died in 1987 in a drunk driving accident 6 weeks after graduation when I was 2 and was originally to be buried on my 3rd birthday but my mom said no way in hell… everytime I hear hank I feel a connection to my brother.

[@LayDeeTee1]

Your reaction to THIS SONG made me subscribe!👍 This song is all about being raised to be self-reliant & live off the land...& Survive. 💯🥰

[@mtblantonjr]

Idk where my first comment ended up about the slower love version. Hank is a true artist and storyteller. Welcome to the south and props on the big truck, getting dirty, and learning another way of life. We all need that diversity in our lives. Mad props for spending time reviewing this. Yeah, the lyrics were changed here and there just because it was a live version. I’m guessing this was performed in Montana.

[@ShadowSolja]

This is a live version. I prefer the actual recording. Difference in voice inflection is best on the recorded version. I believe this one was live recorded in Montana.

[@electrickid101]

As a country boy in Virginia USA I love to come home to my land, wife , dogs and chickens ! I love to till the ground and plant seeds for food that will be great in the summer . To watch it grow and develop fruit . Pick gapes corn and other fruit . Cutting the field on a tractor that’s been running since 1955 ( cause if it ain’t broke ) all while also being a 40 plus hour a week electrician ! The fun never ends and the bills don’t pay themselves !

[@hartybendle5866]

Hank is awesome. You come to my Apache reservation in Arizona we can teach you to survive.

[@donnaarehartpiffier8800]

My family on my Daddy's side has been in Kentucky for about 230 years. My Grandma was a Howard from Howardstown.

[@gregsandifer2398]

Still gives me chills , ...first heard in about 83.

Cheers from a Denverite! Its never too late to discover the outdoors! Great content.

[@williamspropertymaintenanc5570]

I was named after hank Williams Jr Was my dad's favorite player and now that I'm older I respect that he named me after ol'hank

[@craigjacob3704]

Have a great time getting outside brother👍. It's very good to get out and commune with nature and God's great green earth❤️

[@cindylawrence1200]

Honey, u need to walk thru a mud puddle in the summer right after a good rain! It’s the coolest thing ever!

[@jadesparenblek5654]

When jr is in concert he almost always changes the lyrics. You should listen to jr. Before his accident. His voice changed a bit after the accident. He fell 500 ft while rock climbing in Montana. His face landed on a rock. He had multiple skull and facial fractures. After the accident his voice changed and he had pretty bad scars. The scars are the reason he wears sunglasses and has a beard.

[@chrisbera7952]

I like your cerebral mindset and open mind. I too grew up in the big city. Now in my later years, (last 25 years,) I've become a mountain, country boy.

Hank changes his lyrics a lot live. Bocephus will always be.

[@kenbarber3153]

Hank Williams Jr. is the greatest country singer ever IMO.

[@HalefuryxXx]

You should check out his Father singing "There is a Tear in My Beer" Hank Williams Sr.

[@JohnMiller-zn9pf]

Hank grew up with some of the greatest names in rock and country teaching him how to play most instruments. He started performing his dad's song when he was 8.

Just north of ATL. Come on by and we'll plant this year's garden. Swing over to the lake and could run a trot line.
