Song of the Day: Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way

Today I’m giving ya some 70s country from the legend Waylon Jennings. This song was released in 1975 on his album Dreaming My Dreams and went to #1 on the country charts, his fourth song to do that at the time. It’s funny to me how the content of this song is reflective of country music today. Jennings criticizes the glitz and glamour of rising country music stars in the 70s, noting that Hank Williams Sr. didn’t rise to fame that way. If only Waylon Jennings could see what country music has turned into today I wonder what kind of song he’d write.
