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
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!
Hey John and Les I too am glad we have Hank Jr to get the word out to the politicians in this country about how the,everyman in this country feels, I'm a Vietnam 🇻🇳 Era veteran and whenever I'm asked if I'm going to vote ❎ my answer is , since I got discharged from the Navy, (the military) Labor day weekend in 1971 I ain't seen a politician, one 1⃣ side or the other who doesn't try to double talk their way out of giving a straight answer to a straight question and I ain't seen many laws or legislation topics that any f ing politicians wanted to agree on and I for sure ain't seen any politicians back up their words with their actions in regards to better treatment of all Veterans, and in particular Vietnam Era vets, and to this day we've never got the welcome home parades that the generations before us got and to this day politicians act like they're not truly wanting to admit that Vietnam 🇻🇳 Era vets have not been treated with the same respect and thanks for our service that the veterans before us got, and to this day I have as many or more vets thank me for my service than other folks do
Hey John I can relate to what you said 💯 percent, and Les all I can say to you is just like Lyndon Johnson during Vietnam 🇻🇳 Biden got a war dumped in his lap by who came before him, and like him or not he lost a son indirectly to Binladin
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.
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. ✌️💗🙏
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.

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.
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 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
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!!!
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.
@@lemdixon01 some of that may be true, but my wife works at a hospital that is full of critically ill covid patients that are dying. I work at a large hospital system and at the peak of the virus the covid units were at near full compacity. Believe whatever video and Twitter post you want, but this is not a fake pandemic and it is much worse than the flu.
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.
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 ❤️
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
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.
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!
"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.
We need to stop being the world police and start thinking about problems closer to home, how about the people here that are Americans, they come first before any other country.
well thats very selfish of u but heres what ur missing, thier is no we, thier is our goverment and thier plans and then thier is your ideas and your wants witch really doesnt matter because thats not whats really important in life and we will be trying to figure it out til the day we die
Sadly, the all might dollar rules all. If you could make a product at 1/10 the cost and no regulations on making it( i.e. no E.P.A/O.S.H.A/E.O.E) and sell it back to the people you F'd at 2-3-4-500% the cost you spent to make it, and THEY WILL BUY IT!!!!!!!! Wouldn't you choose that path? WE are the consumers who encourage this! This is what we want :-( as a whole.
Isnt it time we put America first again? Time to close the boarders. Time to defend our nation here at home from the "terrorists" in Washington that are gutting our economy and our constitutional rights. All politicians should be tried for treason at this point.
Sadly four years ago, hank got booted from ESPN for his remarks. Then three years later, for some idiotic reason, they brought him back to MNF just two months after laying off hundreds of employees. Go figure.
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.
This is what country music is supposed to be. Good stuff right here. It reminds me of the day the factory closed and they sent our jobs to Vietnam. Makes me wanna have a pint of whiskey with no beer chaser. This ol' country girl is voting for Trump, not Hillary.
@Baseballautographs02 How has that worked out for either of you? Trump is the same big city big government liberal he was before he slapped an R before his name and hoodwinked all y'all.
@@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
Remember 9/11 the first responders didn't get any aid in new york city but there was a huge bailout for wall street the Republicans can't do nothing for Mississippi and the democrats can't do nothing in Illinois
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..
I was working fo a Chevy dealership in a small town, in 2009 we got notified that GM was pulling our franchise license. In six months we were closed and i was unemployed. It took over a year for me to get back into a dealership, not much work for a parts room clerk.
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
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
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
These modern day millenials won't ever understnd paying dues nor working hard, paying it out in sweat and blood and lost family time or missed play time because the fambly needed something or the bills were stacking up because of pay cuts... Elvin Ryals from Georgiana was Srs good friend growing up and played guitar with Hank Sr up until ww2 called him and that man kinda raised me and showed me what work was and he embarrassed me on a daily basis by showing up at the shop an hour or more before opening and staying after an hour or more each day,outworking me solely to make sure all the work and jobs were done,done properly and caught up... Taught me many many skills and trades as I grew from early teenager until my mid 20s all within a small welding shop built from a torn down Naval hangar he and his sons had dismantled and rebuilt into the top welding shop within 100+ miles or more of Pensacola and he always had a positive word,or joke or the most solid advice I've ever heard... He was old school and I've pretty much tried to live my life the way he told me to,and even though I've fallen mighty short many times Ive always gotten back up and went back to it as hard as I could because that's what he and his sons taught me was what a man does,and that the rest will work itself out however God has decided it should...
My husband loves this song, it all sounds all too familiar to him. He had an excellent paying factory job for more than 8 years when they yanked the rug right out under him! Thank you Hank Jr, for being his voice!
Thank you for the endless support and your nice comments. I sincerely appreciate you. It is an honor to have you as a fan. Thank you for the support and love ♥️
