[00:08.03]Country music singers
[00:11.13]Have always been a real close family
[00:15.63]But lately some of my kinfolks
[00:19.11]Have disowned a few others and me
[00:23.28]I guess it's because
[00:26.52]I kind of changed my direction
[00:31.11]Lord I guess I went and broke their family tradition
[00:38.94]They get on me and want to know Hank
[00:40.53]Why do you drink
[00:43.86]Hank why do you roll smoke
[00:48.39]Why must you live out the songs that you wrote
[00:55.98]Over and over
[00:59.37]Everybody makes my prediction
[01:03.21]So if I get stoned I'm just carrying on
[01:06.84]An old family tradition
[01:13.05]I am very proud
[01:16.95]Of my daddy's name
[01:20.70]All though his kind of music
[01:24.27]And mine ain't exactly the same
[01:28.23]Stop and think it over
[01:31.65]Put yourself in my position
[01:35.61]If I get stoned and sing all night long its a family tradition
[01:43.98]Don't ask me
[01:44.88]Hank why do you drink
[01:48.57]Hank why do you roll smoke
[01:53.07]Why must you live out the songs that you wrote
[02:00.60]If I'm down in a honky tonk
[02:03.66]And some ole slick's trying to give me friction
[02:07.56]I'll say leave me alone
[02:09.47]I'm singing all night long
[02:11.67]It's a family tradition
[02:49.05]Lord I have loved some ladies
[02:52.32]And I have loved Jim Beam
[02:57.30]And they both tried to kill me in 1973
[03:04.92]When that doctor asked me
[03:08.10]Son how did you get in this condition
[03:11.88]I said hey sawbones
[03:13.77]I'm just carrying on an ole family tradition
[03:20.37]So don't ask me
[03:21.42]Hank why do you drink
[03:25.17]Hank why do roll smoke
[03:29.64]Why must you live out the songs that you wrote
[03:37.14]Stop and think it over
[03:40.26]Try and put yourself in my unique position
[03:44.67]If I get stoned and sing all night long its a family tradition
