Hank, why do you drink? #HankWilliamsJr #countrymusic | Country Sayings

🔥 “Why do you drink?” “Why do you roll smoke?” Because it’s a Family Tradition! 🎶😎 #CountryClassic #OutlawCountry #HankJr | Twang Country

Released in 1979, “Family Tradition” was Hank Williams Jr.’s rowdy declaration of independence. Written by Bocephus himself, it pushed back at critics who compared him to his father, saying his ways—drinking, smoking, and singing country—were all part of a family legacy. Blending honky-tonk swagger with humor, it hit the Top 5 and became his signature anthem, complete with the famous call-and-response: “Why do you drink?” It’s pure Hank Jr.—defiant, proud, and country to the core. #country | Tru
