Over the past 20 years, Jones has frequently been referred to as the greatest living country singer.[2][3] Country music scholar Bill C. Malone writes, "For the two or three minutes consumed by a song, Jones immerses himself so completely in its lyrics, and in the mood it conveys, that the listener can scarcely avoid becoming similarly involved." Waylon Jennings, in his song "It's Alright" expressed a common jealousy when he said, "If we all could sound the way we wanted, we'd all sound like George Jones."
Throughout his long career, Jones made headlines often as much for tales of his drinking, stormy relationships with women, and violent rages as for his prolific career of making records and touring. His wild lifestyle led to Jones missing many performances, earning him the nickname "No Show Jones." With the help of his fourth wife, Nancy, he has been sober for more than 10 years. Jones has had more than 150 hits during his career, both as a solo artist and in duets with other artists. The shape of his nose and facial features have given Jones the nickname "The Possum." Jones said in an interview that he has chosen to tour only about 60 dates a year.

George Glenn Jones was born on September 12, 1931 in Saratoga, Texas, and was raised in Vidor, Texas, with his brother and five sisters.When he was seven, his parents bought a radio and he heard country music for the first time. Given a guitar when he was nine, Jones was soon busking for money on the streets of Beaumont.
He left home at 16 and went to Jasper, Texas, where he sang and played on the radio station. He married his first wife Dorothy when he was 19, but they divorced within a year. The Korean War was underway, and he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. He was stationed in California for his entire service. Not long after his discharge, his music career took off.
Jones has received many honors during his long career, from Most Promising New Country Vocalist in 1956, being inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1992, and being named a Kennedy Center Honoree in 2008. In 2012 he was presented with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement award. At the ceremony his longtime friend Merle Haggard paid tribute to him.
He served as judge in 2008 for the 8th annual Independent Music Awards to support independent artists' careers.
Jones has been a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1956.

It's not that blue Mercedes Benz
That she could give to me
It's not that if she married me
That I would be set free.
It's not that she's just barrels of fun
That makes me fall so hard
That pretty little lady from Beaumnt, Texas
With the oil well in her yard.
It's not because she could be
In a playboy centerfold
That makes me want to take her back
With here and her black gold.
It's not because she's barrels of fun
That my heart pumps so hard
For that pretty little lady from Beaumnt, Texas
With the oil wells in her yard.
--- Instrumental ---
All that stock in Texas gold
Don't mean a thing to me
I buy my oil at K-Mart
I buy one and get one free.
I'd love her if she didn't have
Those paid up credit cards
That pretty little lady from Beaumnt, Texas
With the oil wells in her yard.
It's not because she could be
In a playboy centerfold
That makes me want to take her back
With here and her black gold.
It's not because she's barrels of fun
That my heart pumps so hard
For that pretty little lady from Beaumnt, Texas
With the oil wells in her yard.
That pretty little lady from Beaumnt, Texas
With the oil wells in her yard...
