Maybe he’s just playing possum.
Holy crap I was just talking about him the other day about him and the lawnmower.
Do me a favor - don’t talk about me and the lawnmower.
I was never that big into country music but somehow I successfully missed this fellow’s entire career. I got plenty of Marty Robbins, Eddy Arnold, Ray Price, Roger Miller, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Patsy Cline, Charley Pride, Johnny Cash and even worked at a country music radio station one summer. Just can’t remember anything by George Jones.
Well, if he accepted Jesus, I’m sure I’ll meet him someday. RIP.
“who’s gonna fill their shoes”
No show George has done his last no show.

You need to show us your ABP Police badge.
Badges? I don’ need no stinkin’ badges ;)
D@MN I was trying to get tickets to his Va performance.
I seem to remember “the race is on” as a kid. Must have been a crossover hit because I didn’t listen to country stations. Great song!
RIP. love that soulful, old school country music.
Better hook George up to a ventilator and wait until tomorrow to pull the plug.
“Yabba dabba do-the king is gone and so are you.”
I just copied the thing I read..
There isn't any country music anymore. Stuff they play today is the same as you hear on regular stations only the singers wear cowboy hats instead of sideways baseball caps.
He’s up there singing with Tammy Wynette again.
