George Jones - "The Corvette Song"

[@GuriMalla2010]

lyrics: I stopped off at the Quicksack for some beer and cigarettes The old man took my money as he stared at my Corvette He said, I had one just like her son, in 1963 Till the man down at the bank took her from me Son she was hotter than a two dollar pistol She was the fastest thing around Long and lean, every young man's dream And she turned every head in town She was built and fun to handle son, I'm glad you dropped in She reminds me of the one I loved back then So I handed him the keys and said, "Here take her for a spin" The old man shook his head and then he looked at me again and grinned He said, "Georgia don't think you understand it ain't your little car I want It's the brunette in [Incomprehensible] that's turnin' me on Lord she was hotter than a two dollar pistol She was the fastest thing around Long and lean, every young man's dream And she turned every head in town She was built and fun to handle son, I'm glad you dropped in She reminds me of the one I loved back then she was hotter than a two dollar pistol She was the fastest thing around Long and lean, every young man's dream And she turned every head in town She was built and fun to handle son, I'm glad you dropped in She reminds me of the one I loved back then She reminds me of the one I loved back then

[@trejt]

[incomprehensible] is "...it's the brunette in your 'vette..."

[@NickJohannes_]

He definitely doesn’t say “Georgia don’t think you understand” lol. It’s George, I don’t think you understand.

[@louisbarrera5913]

The king of country music.

[@ChesterBinks]

Still listening to George in 2024….and I’m 24 yrs old 🤣💀 classics never die

[@denisegomez7772]

Hell yeah 🔥

[@KierstanFendell]

Listening to George in 2024 & about to turn 30 this month. His music is timeless

[@williammills8953]

About the 2:00 minute mark when he does that thing. I had to watch that about 6 times. To make sure that was still him. Lol..

[@brandonwesson6818]

Hottttabodyyyy lol that's what I always hear 🤣

[@joeymatteo2774]

My grandfather loved George Jones he passed away 5/17/2023 I miss him everyday

[@dianaspears571]

Only the Possum could make the crowd go crazy with just his voice. His was the best concert that I ever attended.

[@MichelleHannan]

George Jones is not human. He makes this incredibly rangy and difficult song sound easy. Amazing to watch.

[@pointingdog7235]

He did have a unique voice

[@martinwalsh2960]

George Jones at his best

[@murrayshekelberg9754]

Really is trickier than it seems.

[@sgumede]

I envy those who witnessed this live

[@annalbin]

I agree! He’s not human. No other human could have lived through what he put himself through AND have still been able to sing like he did over a 60 year career.

[@DL-wl7xh]

"I stopped off at the QickSack for some beer and cigarettes"......You have gold before even the end of the first line. Possum forever!!

[@barbmartens4462]

Love and miss you possum

[@sgumede]

For two days I have been playing this song on repeat. This got to be one of the best songs about women and cars. South Africa approves!

[@robert51ism]

thank you mr.jones

[@williamgosse851]

Son, we've had them all. Brunettes, and a great car. Love this song!!!

[@kevinmiller6324]

RIP No Show, you were indeed a legend.

[@geraldblair5084]

[@13lonewolfe]

AMEN. with any luck, you, i, and a lot of others will see him again. just gonna take some time. gonna miss you Possum. R.I.P.

[@lorimartin4693]

AWESOME JOB TO THE POSSUM. GEORGE JONES. AWESOME SONG.

[@mickymcginn4500]

Can't beat old country

[@Cheyenne894]

I'll never forget meeting George Jones back stage. I asked him if he would mind if I gave him a kiss.😁💕 And in his amazing George Jones voice, he stated... " Oh I think that can be arranged" ❣️

[@Grahamgusbull]

Hope my good friend Parmo sees this....he’s got two!

[@myrtlenorris8792]

This is hands down the best version!!!

[@mikepike8569]

I honestly think most of the songs at this concert are the best, awesome show

[@PatriotNC1]

No one sings 'em like the Possum! Gonna miss that ol' boy!

[@maxsands3861]

No wonder I used to like country!

[@reginabina4147]

Hotter than a $2 pistol. Clever George, Real clever. You were the great one for sure.

[@andyyackle4686]

How can you give this a thumbs down????

[@dennismosley717]

The greatest of them all the old Possum.

[@redsoxgirl51282]

RIP george jones

[@bikersoncall]

Watching a few of Waylon's clips a few days ago, I noted that most of his band members from back up singers on up, looked like they were scared to death, afraid they were about to get fired, seems like everyone in this band has/had a smile on their face, having a hell of a time, behind and incredible performer.

[@reginabina4147]

What a piece of excellence he was that night. Can't imagine No Show Jones no showing that night and having to miss all that. Theirs Country and then theirs George Jones. The best of the best of the best. #1 All the Way. 👍👍

[@jadefire1814]

When he was "on" , there was no one better. God, why don't they make music like this *now?*

[@MrScott34]

RIP George. We'll miss you.

[@tylerdibenedetto2641]

This is the best performance of this song i've seen. damn that fiddle comes in harder than the 3rd Calvary.

[@DANIAC262]

Fiddle is the highlight of country songs for me

[@ginajames1012]

son, i have to agree, if Jones isn't classic country then it doesn't exsist! gina james from the Porter Wagoner show at the Opry,,HOWEVER jONES SHOULD HAVE NEVER FIRED HIS RIGHT HAND MAN AN BAND LEADER, BECAUSE HE WAS WITH HIM 25 YR'S. AND HIS SHOW ISN'T THE SAME WITHOUT HIM, THE MAN I AM SPEAKING OF IS RON GADDIS,AND YES I KNOW THEM BOTH PERSONALLY, PORTER EVEN RECORDED WITH RON,AND SON, YOUR MISSED!

[@toddandangelbrowning2920]

Once in the history of time he came through with the absolute best vocal cords for true country music. Never be another…….ever.

[@PurpleDeamonUnicorn]

Yah and I hope my papa is riding right there beside him on his Harley.....

[@LarryBill-ei8kh]

l agree with you, indeed George Jones is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style, he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days

Me and my uncle used to jam to this over a cold miller.. unfortunately he passed, so this is for you uncle " E " love you bro

[@noahcount7132]

Of all the classics the Possum put his unique stamp on, this is one of my top two favorites, the other one being "She Thinks I Still Care."

[@hotrodtrucker88]

this is the best song in the whole world from any body , no exceptions!

[@Goto10Gaming]

Love the “gawd almighty” part 😂💪🏽

[@AnManHydro]

❤Greatest song ever written ❤

[@annalbin]

I played this for my sister. She couldn’t see the video and asked who was singing bass on “hotter than a two dollar pistol “. I said that was George! She didn’t believe me until I showed her. Yep-he had a heck of a range and unbelievable control and phrasing.

[@LarryBill-ei8kh]

No better moment than when The Possum gets low and says "She was hotter than a two dollar pistol"

[@codyping2165]

I've honestly tried to find it and good luck trying long black train just trying to copy ol george and it shows to much for me

[@loriboulais2924]

My favorite George Jones song. My dad was his biggest fan. He stopped loving her today was his favorite song. I prefer this one and white lightening. RIP George and i hope your up there giving my dad one hell of a show. You both are missed down here

[@davidwilliams8820]

Gone, but not forgotten, He was one hell of a country singer. Going to be missed.

[@brandonwesson6818]

It was that "hotttaboddyy she was hotter that a $2 pistol" that got him going lol

[@deploribusrex4480]

Okay, so this is the unleashed power of a drunk who rides on a lawnmower on his way to the liquor store to get more beer but also creates god-like musical productions. Speaking as a fellow drunk, this is impressive.

[@oldarmy57]

Now that is country!!!
