Williams Jr., Hank - A Country Boy Can Survive Lyrics
The preacher man says it's the end of time
And the Mississippi River she's a-goin' dry
The interest is up and the Stock Market's down
And you only get mugged if you go downtown
My woman and the kids, and the dogs, and me
I got a shotgun, a rifle, and a 4-wheel drive
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk 'til dawn
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke, too
Ain't too many things these old boys can't do
We grow good old tomatoes and homemade wine
Country folks can survive
Because you can't starve us out
And you can't make us run
'Cause we're them old boys raised on shotgun
And we say "grace" and we say "Ma'am"
And if you ain't into that we don't give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
And the Rocky Mountains and the western skies
And we can skin a buck; we can run a trotline
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I had a good friend in New York City
He never called me by my name, just hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a businessman
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights
And I'd send him some homemade wine
But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
For 43 dollars my friend lost his life
I'd love to spit some beech nut in that dude's eyes
And shoot him with my old .45
'Cause a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
'Cause you can't starve us out and you can't make us run
'Cause we're them old boys raised on shotgun
And we say "grace" and we say "Ma'am"
And if you ain't into that we don't give a damn
We're from North California and South Alabama
And little towns all around this land
And we can skin a buck; we can run a trotline
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
Country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

LOVE HANK, BEING LISTENING TO HIM FOR A FEW YEARS. ABOUT 40 OF THEM. HELL YA HANK!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Same here, I also recommend: Whitey Morgan, James Carothers, Luke Bell, Hellbound Glory, Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers, Cody Jinks, Dillon Carmichael, George Goss, Dallas Moore, Bob Wayne, Hank III, Joey Allcorn, Curtis Lyn Cook, Dale Watson, Jackson Taylor, & so on.
This is my favorite song... by far
Proud hillbilly
Country boy for life
For 30 years I thought he said run a truck line.
Ha ha ha! :)
@Waterlily 2017 Just realized too that he says:
If you ain't into that we don't give a damn.
No lie...for 30 plus years I thought he said:
If you ain't from the south we don't give a damn.
@3ds max Ha ha, I am still seeing I had lyrics wrong for 30 years on other videos, so I completely understand. There ARE a lot of truckers in the South, so quite understandable you thought it said that. Ha ha, we pretty much DO give a damn if people aren't from the South though. We don't want any foolishness from elsewhere changing things up. ;)
Greatest country song of all time !!!!
I feel sorry for the 26k people that are deaf.
I'm from NY, not the city. The rest of the state is constantly shadowed by that cesspool. We are the people Hank is talking about. Country boys and girls!
And the cats in the cradle in the silver spoon. Little boy blue and the man in the moon. "When you coming home dad?" "I don't know when." You know we'll have a good time then.
his is pretty much the whiteboi's version of a gangster-music video.
My friend MIchelle poe plays bass with Hank Jr.........
What does hank Jr know about real country people ? Fuck all. This is the same kind of fake rootsy bullshit that made hitler and goering a big hit with the germans. If this idiot gave a fuck about real country folk he wouldn't be sucking republicon cock while they suck corporate cock
Damn... He sounds like a reincarnation of Waylon Jennings.
Great song
K so someone was trying out some new trout lines cause that shit ant me. just sayin
Can now I can say I love you i feel your steel when i breath But I can say your can plow a field all day long but I can bread you. rocky mountains dont mean much but hooch. but I feel ya.You may be be different. but we survive. I can stop you and I can stop your peeps but why should I if your bleed you bleed with me. noufh said.
That 26k are luke bryan lovers and probably ain’t against fishin in the rain☹️🤭
Help people..Il help when I can
Look I need help brothers. I need muscle, i need fish. I need thing that pulls this line. help me. god damn regulations and regulators are trying to fuck me.
have a friend just like him don't call me hillbilly
26k dislikes?? Apparently people don't like good music and self sufficiency. Cause all the farmers of the world feed the world. Think of that when you eat your next avocado!!
cant sniff a sniffer
Hell Ill find that blonde woman too..
Ill find him..just sayin
Trump 2020
Never a demoncrat never
This song always reminds me of my abuela 🌹 she was the main bread winner as a migrant worker but she also new how to live off of what she grew & hunted. I loved hearing stories of her childhood on the farm in marlin before she came to San Antonio,especially of her pet pig cb
I live in the city have no choice rn. If I had the choice I would be in the woods. Love contry music.
Texas bebe city folks and cuntry folks both can survive!!!!!! Southeast to be exact mam....
This ain't no CMT radio bullshit, this is *REAL* country.
26,000 soy boys and their feminist overlords in their cities can't survive.
This is by far my favorite song and it is the best country music I have ever heard,hank Williams .Jr is the best singer in the World.
I relate to every thing this song says
Beautiful!!!
Thank God for country folk, my daddy taught me what his daddy taught him, and I will teach my boys the same.
While that can be applied to some things that's not a good model for progression.
Wow cowboys are still alive???
Turned the fuck up in Alberta son
We will save this country. Proud hillbilly from pennsyltucky
When I went moose huntin in Newfoundland 5 years ago we used to crank this song at night in the cabin after we finished huntin for the day. Didn’t get nar moose but we drank plenty of Whiskey and beer 🍺🥃
78.5 million views
26,000 Democrats disliked this fuck off Democrats get a life
Spit some beach nut and kick arse, son!!
I suddenly need a dip, a beer and a bonfire. Miss those days
Followed by the friendly fist a cuff. Miss em too
For me when this song came out you know a bad ass Militech Fighting Systems country boy was approaching the Octagon to do battle. Matt Hughes is elite, having ridiculous power, high level submissions, power wrestling, and respectable but not as dynamic striking. One of the greatest 170 pound fighters to ever battle in the cage.
We are no longer fly over states!
Damm the north just think we are racist but oh I don’t think they know this we are the backbone of the usa
You good people
Still a certified bad ass in 2019
I❤ Hank Williams Jr . . .
0:05 you’re welcome

Preacher man

Rocky Mountain colorado born and raised
and Gpaw first car in clarksvll TN
Hank Williams jr for president 2020
Keep it rocking 2019 big time
My daddy named me Bonnie Lee and his name was Jesse James. Two outlaw names out of the mountains and hollers of West Virginia. I forwarded this song to my son Alexander. I told him this is country music not the crap that they have on the radio today. My daddy loved Hank Sr. He wooed her with Hank Sr.love songs. He would lean over her machine at the factory singing “Your Cold Cold Heart” because she refused to pay attention to him and she ignored him. That’s how she won him. My daddy’s life is worthy of a great country song.
Use an m 14 to hunt
My woman and the kids and the dogs and me....epic
SCV forever
Such a great song
Put Hank Williams Jr. in the Country music Hall of Fame now !
"We say grace, we say ma'am if you ain't into that we dont give a damn!" Rocking to this masterpiece into 2020!!!!
Ohh yeah
