Jones, George - Cold, Cold Heart Lyrics

George used to play lead guitar for Hank Williams in the Drifting cowboys for awhile. Little fact not many know

GUCH give me chills ,GEORGE SING BRILIANT ❤❤Possum 🎤🎸💕💕💕thanks Guri-Malla for LOVELY post💕

LYRICS:
You don't know who I am,
But I know all about you;
I've come to talk to you tonight,
About the things I've seen you do.
I've come to set the record straight,
I've come to shine the light on you;
Let me duce myself,
I am the cold hard truth.
There is a woman we both know,
I think you know the one I mean;
She gave her heart and soul to you,
You gave her only broken dreams.
You say you're not the one to blame,
For all the heartaches she's been through;
I say you're nothin' but a liar,
And I'm the cold hard truth.
All your life that's how it's been,
Looking out for number one;
Taking more than you leave,
Moving on when your done.
With her you could have had it all,
A family and lots of laughs;
If you had any sense at all,
You'd go and beg her to come back.
--- Instrumental ---
You think that you're a real man,
But you're nothing but a fool;
The way you run away from love,
The way you try to play it cool.
I gonna say this just one time,
Time is running out on you;
You best remember me my friend,
I am the cold hard truth.
You best remeber me my friend,
I am the cold hard truth...

I’m Melted, I’m Melted. 💕💕💕💕💕💖💖💖💖💖💖💗💗💗💗💗💗❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I think if Hank Williams Sr could hear this it'd knock him right off his feet. He would sure did make him proud.

Wow, gives me chills, he sings this song so well. Nobody like Posseum!!!!

When you listen to this you realize that country music of late has gone down the drain.

Sing it son ,Sing it ,,,,The one and Only Mr.George Jones

my husband looks and sing sings like George. Bobby Harris

check him out on iTunes right beside George

check him out on u tube

............:)

George Jones' singing transcended country music, in the same way Ray Charles put his stamp on every genre he touched. His completely original phrasing, the rich tone that was his birthright, and that little something he would add right at the end of each note that registers like a bonus point. He was a laid-back, humble genius who, speaking for myself, can only be listened to with awe.

well said lisa

Only a great legend such as George can sing with such a over powering voice that u can truly feel the hurt and aching of the song. This song first sang by a great legend can only be sang by another true legend such as George. WHOS GONNA FILL THESE SHOES? Rip u both r icons and showed me music is your soul and everyone hurts the same. Great job george did and this song is a great one too

well said Lisa.

Gives me chills..............George we love and miss you so much.  No one can ever sing country like you, they broke the mold.  RIP dearest Mr. Jones.  People who love REAL country never knew how much they would miss you until you left us.

D J;s all over north america should be ashamed of their selves for not playing this great singer on the radio !

To right absolutely disgusting

great song

He did. He did a whole album tribute to Hank back in 1960. It's on Spotify and it's awesome!!

@KLUNKET so true i always say that in a 100 yrs people will hear jones and not believe he was real at all , sure he is unbeatable really , and prob the best COUNTRY singer the world will ever have, up to the last 5 r 6 yrs he could just outsing about everyone, god sure gave george the gift

I'd have loved to hear George record this when he was at his vocal peak.

He did a version back in the '60s I think. You can find it here on YouTube.

nothing any better then jones singin one of old hanks songs

I've had arguments about this, but I still think that the 1990's was George Jones's vocal prime. If you listen to his earlier recordings he was great, but really high picthed and didn't twist the notes near as much. In the 80's and 90's he released some vocals that make you think, "nobody can sing that good". But Jones could! I was in Nashville in 1996 and got to hear Jones and the Jones boys rehearsing at the Ryman, and even his rehearsal sounded better than his actual recordings!!

KLUNKET your right when I heard him with just his guitar there's nothing like it greatest singer ever klunket I am a big fan like you seen George around 50 times in concert been on bus with him in the mid 80s had a beer or two little pony miller's he liked those back stage with him right before he would perform great memories and lots of memorabilia

His voice was at his prime from the time he found it ( when he stopped trying to sound like Roy Acuff and Lefty until he lost it after the car crash). It just happened to changed over the years. Even when he was four sheets to the wind he could blow you away.
