"Hank, why do you drink?
Hank, why do you roll smoke?
Why must you live out the songs that you wrote?"
---------------------
"I've got a good woman at home
Who thinks I do no wrong
But sometimes, Lord, she just ain't always around
And you know that's when I fall
Now I can't help myself at all
And I get whiskey bent and hell bound"

All time favorite artist. The day he passes is going to hit me like a freight train

If this is the promised land, I've had all I can stand
And I'm headed back below that Dixie line
No I just don't fit in and I'll never come back again
But I'm busted here with Dixie on my mind
Oh, I'm stuck up here and I got Dixie on my mind

One downvote al the way across. Someone here does NOT like Bocephus.

When he was in his 20's 30's no one thought he would see 77.

Outlived all of his rowdy friends, except Willy.

Grandparents used to see him being pushed around in a stroller

FIgured I'd share one of my favorite covers he did

We’d all learn Cajun cooking in Louisiana
And I’d put that capital back in Alabama

Happy birthday to a legend.

We were at the beach for Memorial Day and there was a concert on the water and one of the headliners was some cat named DJ Dank Williams. I did not attend said concert.

Great singer, song writer, musician, showman, rebel, outlaw, and genuine raconteur....

Hats off and Happy Birthday to Hank Jr- an American Legend.

Happy Birthday Hank.

I've told this here before (and all my real life friends on here have heard it a thousand times), but my grandaddy was married to his momma (Audrey) before Hank Sr. Then when grandaddy was off fighting in WW2, she ran off with Hank.
