country these days would be just as good today as it was back then just if the folks today could just open up there hearts an pore out the soul that most other folks always keep yes it would
I have been looking for this song for years. i remember it came on a cassette where hank jr. tells his father story that was probably 73. the album is since out of print. anyway thanks for a good song
have always loved this song. one of the best tributes ever written, and it is made even more poignant because it was sung by the son who barely got to know him.
I cant believe that I couldnt think of the name of this song to save my life!! ..i mean i knew the words,but .just couldnt think of the title! Thanks 4 the song! ..and Thank u Top Dog ,for guiding me here!
that is were im right what im saying is if he had every song he has now and every album but his name wasnt HANK jr then my friend you and i know he would have been a one hit wonder at best.because most of his songs mention something about the king hank sr
Bird Turd thats where u are wrong when started writin his own music and doin his own thing thats when he stopped "ridin on his daddy's name" as it was called its like what he said in the conversation with waylon "there's still people ridin on his name" but hank jr isnt one of them he did his own thing his own way and made it big
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hank jr is so over rated just think if his name has hank hamilton had no relation with hank sr.The odds favor the conclusion he would have been a one hit wonder at best with rowdy friends

Um, they're not supposed to be compared. Blah. Who would Jr. be if he continued to copy his father's style all his life? He'd be a nobody poser.

@dboi306 According to my album "The Legend of Hank Williams in Song and Story" from 1972 D. Wayne wrote this song.

As Hank jr himself wrote "there will never be another Hank Williams folks", well there will also never be another Hank Jr folks!
