By most accounts, George Jones is the finest vocalist in the recorded history of country music. Initially, he was a hardcore honky tonker in the tradition of Hank Williams, but over the course of his career he developed an affecting, nuanced ballad style. In the course of his career, he never left the top of the country charts, even as he suffered innumerable personal and professional difficulties. Only Eddy Arnold had more Top Ten hits, and Jones always stayed closer to the roots of hardcore country. Jones was born and raised in east Texas, near the city of Beaumont.

Don't Stop The Music Lyrics
George Jones
Don't stop the music
Let it play one more song
The same one that played
But not for so long
He's out with another
I saw him tonight
Sitting there close together
He knows that's not right
So, don't stop the music
Let it play one more song
The same one that played
But not for so long
My pockets are empty
I've spent my last dime
But I just got to hear it
That song one more time
Don't be mad at me mister
I know that it's wrong
But I want you to hear it
The words of that song
So, don't stop the music
Don't make me go home
I know she's not there
And I cry all night long
Don't stop the music
Let it play one more song
The same one that played
But not for so long
My pockets are empty
I've spent my last dime
But I just got to hear it
That song one more time...
