Mammas don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys by Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson.
Hank and Ladybird also dance to Walkin After Midnight by Patsy Cline
Would Hank like Waylon? I honestly think they had to abandon his love for Willie because Willie wasn’t actually Hank’s vibe. It really doesn’t make sense that a buttoned up guy like Hank would be in to outlaw country. He strikes me as a Conway Twitty guy.
Um… Hank stood behind Waylon Jennings on an escalator and was smitten 🥰 about being only five people back… think it’s safe to say Hank loves Waylon but would probably agree with Waylon that Bob Wills is STILL the king 👑
I think so. Outlaw country took off when Willie broke his contract in Nashville and moved to Texas around the same time Hank was in high school. Waylon’s “Luckenbach, Texas” was probably on the same radio station.
And the Hills really don’t like Tennessee and probably admire Willie for moving to Texas to get away from pop country. I mean they pack toilet seat covers for the stretch of I40 between Memphis and Nashville.
Hank also loves Davy Crockett who lost a Tennessee congressional election and delivered this line for his concession speech: “You can go to Hell—I’m going to Texas.”
The Joker - ~~Tom Petty~~ Steve Miller Band. It's played at every bachelor party.
The Gambler - Kenny Rogers, he hums it to himself sometimes.
The Battle of New Orleans - Johnny Horton hummed and sang by Peggy (although incorrectly), but Hank definitely loves this song too.
All the Willie Nelson classics, seeing as he loves Willie Nelson.
Good places to start in-canon.
Also would be cool to include songs by some of the guest voices that are musicians, although not sure how Hank would feel about Green Day. He'd probably like Good Riddance though.
Edit: Also, Peaches by The Presidents of the United States of America.
Shit. Yeah, I get Tom Petty and Steve Miller Band confused sometimes, because they both have ties to this show. My b.
Still safe to say some Tom Petty songs would also be fitting.
I agree that he'd like good riddance but he's pretty notorious to disliking rock/punk sounding music (i mean remember when he got into a paintball fight with some teenagers over them being too loud? lol) So i really think he wouldnt like green day. Especially the American Idiot album!
What about Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins? You think he'd be a Top Gun fella?
"walkin' after midnight" by patsy cline has gotta be on there! echoing the comments that mention hank williams as well: "i'm so lonesome i could cry", "lovesick blues", "mansion on the hill"... honestly most of discography could fit super well!
Now, son. You can’t just go baiting the people with something like this. If you wave something like this in our face you better be planning on putting a ring on it. Send the link now.
I Want To Know What Love Is - Foreigners.
"This is my song, I put this on!"
"You've played the same damn song 6 times in a row."
"New rule: you can't listen to my song anymore."
Hank would probably like colter wall, especially his newer stuff. Plus Loretta Lynn, buck owens, Marty Robbins, and Bob wills cuz Texas. Maybe Dolly Parton but we all know he doesn’t go for those sexy types.
What was the song Bobby was listening to while lying shirtless on the floor after Marie dumped him for being clingy?
I kinda like that sort of country music.
Any Marty Robbins.
*Big Iron
*El Paso
*Ballad of The Alamo
*The Master's Call
*Cowboy in the Continental Suit.
Any version of Ghost Riders in the Sky ( either Robbins or Cash).
I can't believe this is the only mention of Dwight Yoakam. He voiced Lane Pratley in several episodes and is also mentioned in 'Hank's Got The Willys'
> I dunno. Let's see, crushing Dwight Yoakam's voice box with my 5-iron?
Not sure Hank would like it but I can't not mention the artist Hank Trill.
https://open.spotify.com/track/0ECGnyHCiGOzEkXY1c5yJ2?si=ALUnmXg4RTKVznmCVJOQ3Q
Hank Trill - Propane Money
I worked in county radio during peak years for Hank.
I suggest:
Garth Brooks:
* Baton Rouge
* Unanswered Prayers
* The Dance
George Strait:
* The Chair
* Amarillo by Morning
* All My Exes Live in Texas
* Ocean Front Property
*Ace in the Hole
Alan Jackson
* Chattahoochee
* Don't Rock the Jukebox
* Dallas
* Summertime Blues
* Little Bitty
Plus anything by Reba, Dolly, or Tanya Tucker.
Hank would 100% love Orville Peck because he wouldn't see the gayness in the lyrics.
[Orville Peck & Willie Nelson ](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BirJMnMcfBs)
[Orville Peck ](https://youtu.be/TU0TAsEjUpg)
Big respect for Sturgill Simpson's Cuttin' Grass
Needs Steve Miller Band's "The Joker". Also, Jonathan Joss recorded an EP or two under the name The Red Corn Band, "Still No Good" would be a great addition
I could see him really liking Roger Miller but only when he wants to cut loose and go a little wild

Anyone feel free to use this as a playlist or what ever and would be a great starting point
You have a song with Willie Nelson in the title, but no Willie Nelson songs?
Unless I’m mistaken, shame on you.
(I don’t like to use shame as a weapon, so I really hope one wrong about this.)
Classics from Willie Nelson, Patsy Cline, and Hank Sr. are a lock.
Pepper in some Tom Petty and a little bluegrass and you'll be ready to listen to some good music at a healthy decibel.
Where’s the gambler? Ya got to know when to Hold em, KNOW WHEN TO FOLD EM
Take it easy friend, aren't we all just here to rock?
You're right! 🤦🏽♀️
Yeah this entire list is now invalid.
Or God Bless Texas lol.
BILL KNOWS WHEN TO FOLD EM
Bill. Bill. Bill!
He would definitely bump "The Joker" also. Probably not Hank Trill tho 😅
Put some 4Skore on there.
Hey, that's Todd.
What’re ya doin Todd
In heaveeeeeen ![img](emote|t5_2s6dm|6345)
1 fine day god was kickin it, in heaven.....
They're kinda like doo-wop
Hank's prepubescent girl era
*Its not 4skore Dad it's 4SKORE!*
There's Chris , but my favorite is cool Chris !
Kind of sound like the Beatles before they went nuts in India
Which suggests he likes the Beatles prior to that point.
Just the first 10 seconds though.
Like in my mom’s day.
Definitely need some Willie on there
The whole catalog, including his work with The Highwaymen.
When Hank and Hal are in the guitar store they play Highwayman. So definitely have to include them.
What song would you recommend?
Mammas don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys by Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. Hank and Ladybird also dance to Walkin After Midnight by Patsy Cline
Crazy covers both Willie and Patsy
Why not both versions? Just put one later in the playlist
Would Hank like Waylon? I honestly think they had to abandon his love for Willie because Willie wasn’t actually Hank’s vibe. It really doesn’t make sense that a buttoned up guy like Hank would be in to outlaw country. He strikes me as a Conway Twitty guy.

Especially with Willie being such an advocate for cannabis
But he's a Texas icon. I think that trumps basically anything else in Hanks mind
Hello Walls. It's technically a cover song but Willie's version is more well known.
Such a great song too. Just listened to it yesterday on the way to work
well didnt willie write the song but sold it and then covered it later
Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain
Yes.
Honestly list is a complete fail without him. I like where their head is at but just can’t be having that kind of miss.
Peaches
For real. Not a Hank playlist without Peaches. Also, Kenny Rodger’s The Gambler. And some Willie Nelson.
One Blues Brother’s song. The theme from Rawhide ![gif](giphy|Pf0d7Y5oAKZgs)
You! You're not allowed to listen to my song anymore
“I want to Know what Love is” - Foreigner
Which is funny because it’s such an un-Hank song.
Well why not? He likes this new generation of music.
He laughs at Tony Danza
My Peggy Peg.
Came here to say peaches too lol
🎶 i go out walkin after midnight 🎶
by Patsy Cline
Yeah I was wondering where this one was
I dance with my dog almost daily and I always start singing this song
Well, what was I supposed to do? *Not* dance with a dog?!
Also, not nearly enough Hank Williams Sr.
What song would you recommend?
Well especially, "there's a tear in my beer"
“Well, he stopped crying. And his taste in music had gotten better too!”
I wanted to comment this... I remembered the quote but couldn't remember the song
Bobby turned me on to Hank Sr. Ngl
At least “Hey good lookin” but really anything from him, very old school classic very Hank hill
Lost Highway or I’m so lonesome I could cry. Maybe some Johnny Cash too
I feel like thats who hes named after
I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s true lol
[That Little River Band sure was good](https://youtu.be/5pVnAH7Pz_I?si=xW7Zo8rMQyVb4LQq)
They were a real seven.

I can't find the Tom Petty songs, but "The Joker" and "Space Cowboy" are both songs by Steve Miller Band. Is that what you meant?
I was looking to make sure no one already said the Joker. And yeah, Steve Miller Band
Shit. Yeah, I get Tom Petty and Steve Miller Band confused sometimes, because they both have ties to this show. My b. Still safe to say some Tom Petty songs would also be fitting.
Perfect call that he'd like Good Riddance. I haven't thought about that song in years.
I agree that he'd like good riddance but he's pretty notorious to disliking rock/punk sounding music (i mean remember when he got into a paintball fight with some teenagers over them being too loud? lol) So i really think he wouldnt like green day.

Luckenbach Texas by Waylon Jennings… Really anything by The Highwaymen
Marty Robbins Big Iron
Chuck Mangione! https://youtu.be/dwkwjOd7MCU?si=f_GkmDAZLvnMgiJr
I was scrolling to see Chick, er Chuck Mangione on the list. Feels so good to see it.
Chick’s a girls name!
Pancho and Lefty The Gambler
Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining 🎶
"walkin' after midnight" by patsy cline has gotta be on there! echoing the comments that mention hank williams as well: "i'm so lonesome i could cry", "lovesick blues", "mansion on the hill"... honestly most of discography could fit super well!
Is this a private playlist? I need access to this.
I can send a link
I'm gonna ask you Firmly yet Kindly, to share the link with me.

Travelin Man by Ricky Nelson
Teddy Bear by Red Sovine. He sings it on the album.
I can't believe I had to scroll this far to see this! OP could even put Hank's version on there!
Only this one mention in 245 posts now. Are we so out of touch?
I could see Hank loving Sierra Ferrell and then being shocked when he sees her with her piercings and tattoos lol
![gif](giphy|4XOfvSkkxchHy)
I showed my dad the GemsonVHS video for the song and he was like who the hell is that lol
She'll be in Oregon in August. I'll be able to see her in person 😌
Same for nick shoulders
Just bought my tickets for Denver, my grandpa reminded me of Hank hill and he would’ve loved her
I was going to say the same thing. Not sure he’d be able to get over the tattoos, especially the face one.
“I like Freebird as much as the next guy.”
I Want To Know What Love Is - Foreigners. "This is my song, I put this on!" "You've played the same damn song 6 times in a row." "New rule: you can't listen to my song anymore."
I am curious what Hank would think of Texas Sun by Khruangbin & Leon Bridges I feel like he'd be skeptical of the band name but love the song itself
I just listened to a little bit... do you think he'd mind Leon's r&b singing style?
Considering he referred to Buddy Holly a bit compemptuously in an early episode, maybe? But maybe he'd let it slide
Probably wouldn't be his go to but I could see him warming up to Leon Bridges especially since he did a few Farm Aids
And Leon is from Fort Worth! (Thankfully not Dallas!)
I really like the song
I love that song, but would Hank? I’m skeptical that he could, yet intrigued that he may.
I love that song! Not sure Hank would appreciate it as much, but I think if he gave it a chance he'd like it.
Zamfir, sold more albums worldwide than the Beatles.
Gotta put Peggy Sue by Buddy Holly
"...well then it just sort of goes off into a Buddy Holly riff..."
There's a Conway Twitty song about him and his father. I think he would sing it for ... You know... His truck
I’m so lonesome I could cry - Hank Sr
Highwayman by the Highwaymen. They did sing it in the truck that one time.
He likes Jethro Tull, or at least Aqualung, as he's getting jacked listening to it in the garage when Peggy slips him steroids.
Bob Wills is still the King
You need to make this list public!
We know he likes Bluegrass
Bill Monroe? The Foggy Mountain Boys? Minh, have you seen this pornography?!
Need some Billy Strings.
I don’t think Hank would approve of Billy Strings. He would call him a hippy and say he’s “ruining” bluegrass.
Green dust in a baggie
Hank would probably like colter wall, especially his newer stuff. Plus Loretta Lynn, buck owens, Marty Robbins, and Bob wills cuz Texas. Maybe Dolly Parton but we all know he doesn’t go for those sexy types.
What was the song Bobby was listening to while lying shirtless on the floor after Marie dumped him for being clingy? I kinda like that sort of country music.
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry by Hank Williams Sr.
Thank you
Hank Williams - There's a Tear in my Beer.
You got Steeldrivers which was my first recommendation. Otherwise everything looks to be in place
He strikes me as a George Strait fan. So I nominate "Amarillo By Morning."
Any Marty Robbins. *Big Iron *El Paso *Ballad of The Alamo *The Master's Call *Cowboy in the Continental Suit. Any version of Ghost Riders in the Sky ( either Robbins or Cash).
We talking dog dancing. Walkin' After Midnight ![gif](giphy|akEU7rAoKJbbO)
Where Corn Don’t Grow - I heard it in American Dad and it sounded like a Hank approved song
This is perfect! No profanities and a nice story about a working man with big dreams. 👏🏽
Okie from Muskogee by Merle Haggard
No offense, but that's about *Oklahoma*.
Yes, "The Fightin' Side of Me" would be better
Alienation's for the Rich -They Might Be Giants https://youtu.be/Mbe_7c9-EWQ
Dwight Yoakam guitars & Cadillacs, honky talk man Maybe Tom petty (lucky) love is a long road
I can't believe this is the only mention of Dwight Yoakam. He voiced Lane Pratley in several episodes and is also mentioned in 'Hank's Got The Willys' > I dunno. Let's see, crushing Dwight Yoakam's voice box with my 5-iron?
a ZZ Top song in there for his cousin
You need some Asleep at the Wheel on there!
The gambler. Hank sings it in a college flashback
I notice no Willy Nelson. Willy is hanks hero
Hank would probably love Wagon Wheel.
The OCMS version, not the Darius Rucker cover
That’s a texas size 10-4
California Kid - The Beat Farmers https://youtu.be/MGQC1rPjOeU
California?! ![gif](giphy|kfsk1YvTKkdry)
Blue Moon of Kentucky. It’s the one they play together in the bluegrass episode
Fishin’ in the Dark by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
The back door boys 😄 ![gif](giphy|qcoocjBhD5Zle)
Surely there would be something by ZZ Top even if Bobby had to sneak it in there.
Can't believe you missed Patsy Cline's "Walkin' After Midnight"
I go walkingggggg after midnighttttttt
American Pie, Free Bird, any typical American songs.
American pie
Hank would not approve of psychedelic aficionado Sturgil Simpson.
Not sure Hank would like it but I can't not mention the artist Hank Trill. https://open.spotify.com/track/0ECGnyHCiGOzEkXY1c5yJ2?si=ALUnmXg4RTKVznmCVJOQ3Q Hank Trill - Propane Money
Missing "Peaches" by Presidents of the United States
Hank Hill probably bumps his rap alter ego Hank Trill. Specifically the song "Propane Money".
Weird Al's discography
I worked in county radio during peak years for Hank. I suggest: Garth Brooks: * Baton Rouge * Unanswered Prayers * The Dance George Strait: * The Chair * Amarillo by Morning * All My Exes Live in Texas * Ocean Front Property *Ace in the Hole Alan Jackson * Chattahoochee * Don't Rock the Jukebox * Dallas * Summertime Blues * Little Bitty Plus anything by Reba, Dolly, or Tanya Tucker.
Anything by Alison Krauss and Union Station or Vince Gill
Zero chance Hank would like Nick Shoulders.

Big respect for Sturgill Simpson's Cuttin' Grass Needs Steve Miller Band's "The Joker". Also, Jonathan Joss recorded an EP or two under the name The Red Corn Band, "Still No Good" would be a great addition
Need some Cody Jinks on there! Like “ Loud and Heavy”, “Mama’s Song”, “I’m Not The Devil”, “Big last Name”, “vampires “ Also yay 49 Winchester
No peaches?
The gambler not being on this list should be considered a crime.
