First time hearing Hank Williams Jr- "A Country Boy Can Survive" *REACTION*

Grew up in Chicago. I had a very low opinion of Country Folk, all the usual stereotypes. Then at 19 I joined the Marine Corps, and in case y'all don't know the military is full of Country boys. Next thing I know I'm in the middle of a desert with these guys, drinking illegal Whiskey(Muslim country), and blasting this song. Right then and there, I fell in love with Country Folk and Country Music. Country Folk aren't anything like they're depicted. They know so much stuff. I was in WV partying with my buddy, and I was blown away. One of his buddies dads was completely remodeling the upstairs of his house, while working in a coal mine, and taking of rescue horses, and growing a giant garden, and hunting, and and and....They are amazing people.

Nothing is more awesome than a cool ass black guy busting out the classic country. Love it. Love this channel

Married a country man 30 years ago still together nothing he can't do..taught our boys hunt fish shoot by the time they could walk..Appalachian proud always forever!

Country folk come in all shapes sizes and colors. We more alike than y’all think. 👊

He's not lying. I made sugar and syrup from trees. I kept bees for honey. I can hunt, fish, can, preserve food, raise crops, start fires, find water. And defend ourselves. No matter what happens, county folks know a lot.

This song is all about self reliance. Dont count on anyone to help you when the SHTF. Be prepared....not scared. Thank GOD I'm a country girl!!!

Hank Williams Jr is one tough dude. In 1975 when Hank was just 26 years old he fell 530 ft off of Ajax Mountain in Montana. He hit all kinds of rocks on his way down and had to have 17 surgeries to return to health and his face looks nothing like it did previously and is one of the reasons he always wears sunglasses. He credits his survival with the fact that he never blacked out even when it took rescuers 6 hours to reach him. His father was a Country Music Legend who lived a short but extremely successful life. Hank Jr's song "Family Tradition" is a great one that talks about following in his father's footsteps with his vices.

I am one of those country boys i am an old man now and i have listened to Hank and his daddy all my life. What i saw of you listening to this song makes me think you are good people and i think i would enjoy sitting at the kitchen table and drinking some home made wine with you god bless you son.

Came out in 1982 and still was ahead of it's time. Words are still relevant today.

It isn’t cocky, it’s fact. I grew up country and can do all those things. We don’t think we’re better than anyone, it’s just what we do.

I've heard this song a thousand times and it still gives me chills.

Sadly, his friend being murdered in a robbery is a true story😢

As a country man, I can tell you that we're self sufficient. He is not being cocky in this song. He was just stating facts 🎉

I grew up in the South, this song is very old,but many still think its the ANTHEM for the South. Great song.

Sweetie I from the South and I can tell you they can do anything ! And don't mess with their long hair Country Girl! And we can survive .... ❤❤❤❤❤️ Much love glad you like Hank ❤️✝️🇺🇲

I feel this song. I lived in DC, Baltimore, and Philly and moved to Kentucky. I have never been happier. I live in a Hallmark movie.

Hank Williams Jr is a good person. I am from West Virginia. He came to West Virginia in 2006 to see the sole survivor of The Sago Mine cave in. He went to the mine, went part way in to experience what coal mining would be like. Tried to bring awareness to others about the experience. He tells the truth, country people all over the world will survive.

I grew up on 23 acres of country in Texas. My 2 sisters, Dad and Mom and I would hunt, fish, had a garden, cows, chickens, rabbits, and turkeys. I shot my first deer when I was about 8 years old. We would all shoot a deer each, during the season, and then we'd make deer sausage, backstrap, etc. "We say grace and we say ma'am, if you ain't into that we don't give a damn."....true story!

Being a country boy is more tradition than anything else. Remember when Texas became a state? It was because of Volunteers from Tennessee that went and fought with them. Southerners and hillbillies have been brother'n up with folks all over the place forever. We're family oriented. MUCH LOVE Lil'brother.

If society ever does collapse those "country folks" will be feeling it a lot less than the rest of us. There has been a big movement towards "Homesteading" in recent years. People want to learn to be self sufficient and be less dependent on society. If I was younger I would be doing the same.
