More quotes by George Jones
There's nothing prettier in the world than a melody. I can get lost in a song with a melody.
George Jones
I lay my head on the wheel and the horn begins honking, the whole neighborhood knows that I'm home drunk again.
George Jones
I sing from my heart, I love country music and I love the people that respond to it. You never see yourself as others do but I've always beeen proud to be part of country music and I hope that the format is proud of me.
George Jones
Before then, Britain was pessimistic and the role of government was largely managing Britain in decline.
George Jones
You can shut out the world. But you always have to stop, and the world is always waiting when you do.
George Jones
I've had a lot of practice and wrong's what I do best.
George Jones
The only thing different between sinners and saints is one is forgiven and the other ain't.
George Jones
There, gleaming in the glow, was that ten-horsepower rotary engine under a seat. A key glistening in the ignition. I imagine the top speed for that old mower was five miles per hour. It might have taken an hour and a half or more for me to get to the liquor store, but get there I did.
George Jones
God bless the boys from Memphis, blue suede shoes, and Elvis.
George Jones
I hear some new artists that sound country but the record labels and country radio lean more toward a more rock feel for what gets signed to a label and played on the radio.
George Jones
No matter what song I recorded or sang, I did it my way.
George Jones
I've always said that if I could have made a living someway in gospel music, I would have loved to had that break, but it never was offered to me, a job in that field, so naturally, I got lost on that other road.
George Jones
Be real about what you do. Stay true to the voice inside you. Don't let the 'business' change what it is you love because the people, the fans, respond to what is heartfelt. They can always tell when a singer is faking it.
George Jones
Everybody knows in the business how I feel about country music. I'm an old traditionalist. Then they just call me an old man and stuck in my old ways, but with all the fans I've got out there, I can't be all that wrong. I do love traditional country music. I love the good stuff.
George Jones
Anybody who loves country music loves gospel. Even they are competing with the same type of problem that I'm competing with. We older artists are competing with the new style of country, with their new modern style of gospel, with the young people.
George Jones
Maybe some folks are alcoholics and others are just voluntary drunks. Maybe some folks drink due to body chemistry and others due to their lazy characters. Maybe some have drinking problems, while others have problems enough to drink.
George Jones
Loneliness is lessened when you're lonely by choice.
George Jones
Different people have their ways of measuring success, maybe it's not the right way but wrong's what I do best.
George Jones
If drinking don't kill me, her memory will.
George Jones
Country music to me is heartfelt music that speaks to the common man. It is about real life stories with rather simple melodies that the average person can follow. Country music should speak directly and simply about the highs and lows of life. Something that anyone can relate to.
