Song of the Day (131): The King is Gone – George Jones  

Song of the Day (131) - The King is Gone by George Jones

We got Elvis, Fred Flintstone and lonely Geroge Jones sitting on the floor drinking with his two new friends talking women. The wit and humor keep the song form falling into the morass of self-pity, but also let’s us feel the hurt now that the singer’s wife is gone. Jones sings with just enough absurdity and sincerity to make it perfect.

My son john prodded me to include this song while we sang along in the car the other day. John has good taste.
