Thanks Jason for this request . The song was written by Hank Jr & Jimmy Bowen and released in 1984 on his Major Moves album. Good song paaying tribute to Abe. Thanks for the reaction
Thank you Jason for an outstanding request. A new one to me and it really resonated with me. Although it's from the 80s, as Don said it could have been written today. Don mentioned common sense, but that doesn't seem very common these days. We are suffering from increased crime here in Canada, caused in part from the current government's relaxation of jail time and making it easier to post bail. The opposition leader refers to this as the "catch and release" strategy. We'll see if anything changes, but I'm not very optimistic at this time. Thanks Don for the super reaction!
Bocephus writes almost all of his songs, including this song, it was originally released in 1984 but then released on the album America, the way I see it. in 1990 peaked at number 11. it has some awesome songs you should react to including I've Got Rights, Don't Give Us a Reason, and The American Way to name a few
This is probably my favorite rarity from Hank Junior, that very seldom got played on country music. And you are right Don, still speaks truth even today!
I remember when this was released! I had this cassette. My best friend and I saw Hank Jr every year he came to town in the mid-late 80’s. The last concert I went to of his, he was so drunk that he couldn’t even sing and he cut the concert short. The main country radio station banned his songs and wouldn’t play them anymore.
Yes he was backwoods lawyer in Louisville Kentucky. Lincoln never forgot where he came from. A small town called Hodgenville KY and remembered his mom. Taking him to Etown and having to eat with slave children in Hardinsburg KY.

I've Got Rights is another great obscure song from Hank

One of those obscure songs that should have been released on the radio
Yes Don Hank wrote the song and released it in 1984 off the album Major Movies and very true lyrics
The album I first this song from is full of great songs. The album was Hank William Jr. America The way I see it)
I didn’t hear this until around the late 90s when I came across it on Napster. I liked the message then and still today.
One of his best
It came out in 1984. It could have came out in 2024. I can’t believe that album is 40 years old.Time has flown by. Hank wrote the song.
1984, it was my second country album to purchase after Hank’s greatest hits album and bought both freshman year of high school in ‘85
Funny was listening to the other day and thought it be god song for him to check out

A very good song, that tells it like it is. Thanks Jason for this song reaction request. Cheers!
The Album is called "America The Way I See It" every track on that album is really good songs with humor of course.
This is probably my favorite rarity from Hank Junior, that very seldom got played on country music. And you are right Don, still speaks truth even today!
Gift review hank Williams jr gulf shore road
Now that’s one I haven’t heard in more years than I care admit. Seams like it is timeless. Sad but no improvements!
Hank wrote this back in the late 80's
Came out in 1984, but he was performing it in concerts in 1983
From the album "America (The Way I See It)" every song on this record is great.
It was rereleased on America the way I see it. Major moves is where it was first released.
Try “I got rights” it’s a good song also.
I remember when this was released! I had this cassette. My best friend and I saw Hank Jr every year he came to town in the mid-late 80’s.

Lincoln was a backwoods lawyer.....
Yes he was backwoods lawyer in Louisville Kentucky. Lincoln never forgot where he came from. A small town called Hodgenville KY and remembered his mom. Taking him to Etown and having to eat with slave children in Hardinsburg KY.
You should listen to I've Got Rights.
This was the mid 80’s

Upfront the north but live I south
Hay can you react to ol red by Marty robbins
Did you just seriously ask who wrote this?
The Major Moves album was the last great Hank Jr. album.
I always think that Hank was talking to Lincoln about abolishing slavery, and what a mistake he made.
