LYRICS: A Good Year for the Roses George Jones I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick On the cigarettes there in the ashtray Lyin' cold the way you left them But at least your lips caressed them while you packed And a lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee that you poured and didn't drink But at least you thought you wanted it, that's so much more than I can say for me It's been a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny, I don't even care When you turned and walked away And as the door behind you closes The only thing I know to say It's been a good year for the roses After three full years of marriage It's the first time that you haven't made the bed I guess the reason we're not talkin', there's so little left to say we haven't said While a million thoughts go runnin' through my mind, I find I haven't spoke a word And from the bedroom those familiar sounds of our one baby's cryin' goes unheard But what a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny, I don't even care And when you turned and walked away As the door behind you closes The only thing I know to say It's been a good year for the roses
I worry about myself. I love these two gentlemen of Country Music. I watched Mr. Jones and Mr. Jackson sing this song in a studio way back years ago. As I watched it, there was like a Country Music invisible torch passed from one generation to the other. And everything I listen to "Another Year For The Roses" always brings a tear to my heart, mind, and eyes. Mr. Jackson, you are so deserving of award you received tonight. GOD bless you. Mr. George Jones, Rest In Peace. And thank you for leaving all your songs for us fans.
Seeing the video of them singing this song in the studio was the first time i thought; Damn this George Jones guy can really sing. That was in 2017. He's been my favorite country artist ever since and forever will be.
Alan should have sung this @ George's funeral, but it was moving that he sang the all time greatest song for George @ his farewell party!! Now Alan can fill those shoes that no one can truly totally fill!! But Alan will be close to being the one to fill them!! RIP Mr. Jones!! The angels are now being led in their singing by the best!
I love this song and the original video they released of it was of the two of them in the studio singing and Alan is just wearing a flannel shirt and a beard he looks the part too.
alan jackson sounds awesome. There are times when he sound sooo much like george jones. I know he loves him the way I do, Let's keep real country alive.
Two of the greatest together. I've never been fortunate enough to see either of them in a live concert. My youngest daughter saw George, when she was still in school, at Busch Gardens, Williamsburg Virginia. She had a front row seat and George sang to her. She was thrilled. Alan you are a great entertainer ..AND.. So sexy looking. Keep up the good work and keep it country.
it's so unfortunate what Nashville has become..george may you rest sweet and easy you old sailor you. here's to alan holding the torch as long as they let him.
A million thanks Ronja for attending to our comments, 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️I was thinking 2 days back to ask u open a channel where we'll communicate with still alive singers chat with them and ask them some questions, just for entertainment purposes still, u know, sometimes when am listening to some other songs I ask myself some questions like"ey shame what had happened? "or I sometimes don't understand the whole clue in the song because they sometimes use figurative speech when singing, like in this song I don't understand if in all these complaints where do the topic of a song" is for the good year for the roses" tally, so if could be given chance of chatting to them I could ask 😂😂😂
Hello and thanks for the question. I have so many channels here on RUclips and a lot of work with what comes with it, so unfortunately I have to say no. I hope you understand
@@Ronja2H2 a million thanks once more, u're somebody reliable, honest and true ill keep on logging in to ur channels, u help us a great deal more especially me am sooooo lonely, no intimate lover and life is so miserable without so of late I've discovered that RUclips helps me talk to other ppl out there, has helped me a great deal about these singers videos they talk with me even when am driving long distances I pick one artist and say pls narrate me ur stories my love and on the way while he sings I keep on replying "shame" or "what happened?" or "don't worry God will forgive u" 😂😂😂 so I mean I understand my love..... I will keep on asking myself those questions but plz tell me (last time question now) how could I chat with them?
I still think it to be strange cause I didn't think I'd ever get to see him and then I saw that he was gonna be playin near my town and we got to go see him back in Nov ... He did wonderful..:)
Both beautiful voices and handsome loving artists, I love them dearly they make the song feel hard to resist. But if each one can sing it with a female singer I'd understand it fittingly, now 2 males complain to each other even saying "after 3 yrs of marriage I didn't see u having not made ur bed" 🤔🙄 and the other one talks about "our 3yr old baby crying in the bedroom" it prompts questions and laughter 🤣🤣🤣🤣
LYRICS:
A Good Year for the Roses
George Jones
I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick
On the cigarettes there in the ashtray
Lyin' cold the way you left them
But at least your lips caressed them while you packed
And a lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee that you poured and didn't drink
But at least you thought you wanted it, that's so much more than I can say for me
It's been a good year for the roses
Many blooms still linger there
The lawn could stand another mowin'
Funny, I don't even care
When you turned and walked away
And as the door behind you closes
The only thing I know to say
It's been a good year for the roses
After three full years of marriage
It's the first time that you haven't made the bed
I guess the reason we're not talkin', there's so little left to say we haven't said
While a million thoughts go runnin' through my mind, I find I haven't spoke a word
And from the bedroom those familiar sounds of our one baby's cryin' goes unheard
But what a good year for the roses
Many blooms still linger there
The lawn could stand another mowin'
Funny, I don't even care
And when you turned and walked away
As the door behind you closes
The only thing I know to say
It's been a good year for the roses
I LOVE SO MUCH THIS BEAUTIFUL MUSIC " IT'S BEEN A GOOD YEAR FOR THE ROSES" GEORGE JONES AND ALAN JACKSON

THIS TWO FRIENDS

That looks like Lloyd Maines on the pedal steel. If so, there were three legends of music on that stage.
George is one of the very few that was blessed with a voice that was not of this world. One of the top voices to ever caress a 🎤 🎙
#Legend
One of Georges best songs❤❤
Great duet,George Will be missed.Alan I'm glad you got to sing with him
George is a legend. I like Alan a lot to. But George is amazing.
Yes it is a great year for the roses 🌹 😊
I love this song and the original video they released of it was of the two of them in the studio singing and Alan is just wearing a flannel shirt and a beard he looks the part too.
The sounds of George Jones is still like music to my ears.
It was a magical night to have been in the audience to witness this live
See George look at Alan!! He knows this is his best bet to carry on true Country music.
