You are a lucky person if you find that person who will be there to care for you. In addition, finding a person who will stop you from doing bad things in your life is something we also need. It’s good to have that right person by your side because that person will help you become the better version of yourself.

George Jones Version

In 1980, Hank Williams Jr. wrote and first performed “The Blues Man”. However, Williams’ versions weren’t able to enter the US Billboard charts. In 2005, George Jones recorded a version of this song. He included it as part of his album Hits I Missed…And One I Didn’t. But, his version also didn’t enter the Billboard Charts. His album was a collection of songs that were already performed by some famous country musicians. He recorded the following songs, Merle Haggard’s“Today I Started Loving You Again,” Willie Nelson’s “Funny How Time Slips Away,” and Mel Tillis’ “Detroit City.” Hits I Missed…And One I Didn’t was Jones last album he had recorded.

All About the Song

This is a song about a musician who was caught up in the life of performing and doing things to keep up with his work. He drinks a lot and uses drugs. He seems to be lost as he goes on with his life. However, he started to be a better man when he met someone. She was the reason why he kept his sanity. He knew he was lucky to have her because she made him want to change for the better. In return, the man wanted his lady to know how much he loves her and is lucky to have her.
