Jones, George - My Tears Are Overdue Lyrics

Yeah ole george first time heard him i was a young man i cant remember the song but my grandad , dad , uncle and myself riding around drinking cold beer ...my grandad loved to listen to music his tops was George , conway and johnny bush when the cold beer was gone ....There music still live on but for all the other singers that cut same of those done a great . ..but once it was done by George that was it the became his

Fred Segrest who under his performing name of Freddie Hart wrote this lament of the epitome of hurt and despair. No one sings this song with the stark utter cold emotion of George Jones. The word "overdue" gets a 10 syllable make over by the king of country diction. This song is what happens in the stark reality when she grinds your heart into the ground like a half smoked cigarette, and walks away with her high heels stomping that heart like that worthless same cigarette.

Everyone says he stopped Loving her today with his greatest song I personally think this is just as good

I will always be a fan of MR Jones.

and this is one of many I have not heard before.

Right on Good stuf

JONESIN

Just listen to Mr. Jones draw out the last "hang around."  Dammit, that's country soul, through and through, friend!

He murdered that hang around 🔥🔥

Right out of the Lefty handbook! Not a surprise as George was a big Lefty Frizzell fan. This is a great version!

You found my best tune of the early sun shine..........

damn im not ashamed to admit it, but i cried during this song,cause the Golden Voice was remarkable and we thank you for the memories George,

great voice

And there sings the late Great George Jones, to be surpassed by none.

he sing's about a real brake heart stuff all time and he sing's from his heart too.

Greatest Ever! Nuff said!

he is pure country that's for damn sure and he better than t swift by a long shot. she can shine his shoes for him.

watch, dont fish and drive!

awsome

Felt this way before. Great song!

loaded and priceless... your comment, not George. Well, maybe him, too.

Ever since he popped the top and drank the bottle empty. There's room for him in there since he drank himself to pieces. Broken promises and shattered life's leases. Her word is good, he never ever keeps his. Look in the empty bottle and you can see all their little life's pieces.

Nobody does it like George hes one of a kind Thanks!!!

LOL....maciwenew, I hear ya!!

This is country music at it's finest! George is quite the star!

Wow what a voice..Thanks for sharing.

You're very welcome Barb.

This is pure country. No doubt about it.
