Country music singers have been a real close family

But lately some of my kinfolks

have disowned a few others and me

I guess it's because I kind of changed my direction

Lord I guess I went and broke their family tradition

They get on me and want to know Hank

why do you drink Why do you roll smoke

Why must you live out the songs that you wrote

Over and over everybody makes my predictions

So if I get stoned I'm just carrying

on an old family tradition

I am very proud of my daddy's name

All though his kind of music

and mine ain't exactly the same

Stop and think it over Put yourself in my position

If I get stoned and sing all night long

it's a family tradition

So don't ask me Hank why do you drink Hank

why do you roll smoke

Why must you live out the songs that you wrote

If I'm down in a honky-tonk some ole

slick's trying to give me friction

I said leave me alone I'm singing all night long

it's a family tradition

Lord I have loved some ladies and

I have loved Jim Beam

And they both tried to kill me in 1973

When that doctor asked me Son

how did you get in this condition

I said hey sawbones I'm just carrying

on an ole family tradition

So don't ask me Hank

why do you drink Hank why do roll smoke

Why must you live out the songs that you wrote

Stop and think it over try and

put yourself in my unique position

If I get stoned and sing all night

long it's a family tradition
