[Chorus]
Don't rock the jukebox
I wanna hear some Jones
'Cause my heart ain't ready
For the Rolling Stones
I don't feel like rocking
Since my baby's gone
So don't rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
[Verse 1]
Before you drop that quarter
Keep one thing in mind
You got a heart-broke hillbilly
Standing here in line
I've been down and lonely
Ever since she left
Before you punch that number
Could I make one request
[Chorus]
Don't rock the jukebox
I wanna hear some Jones
'Cause my heart ain't ready
For the Rolling Stones
I don't feel like rocking
Since my baby's gone
So don't rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
[Verse 2]
I ain't got nothing
Against rock and roll
But when your heart's been broken
You need a song that's slow
Ain't nothing like a steel guitar
To drown a memory
Before you spend your money baby
Play a song for me
[Chorus]
Don't rock the jukebox
I wanna hear George Jones
'Cause my heart ain't ready
For the Rolling Stones
I don't feel like rocking
Since my baby's gone
So don't rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
[Outro]
Yeah, don't rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
Don't rock the jukebox
I wanna hear some Jones
'Cause my heart ain't ready
For the Rolling Stones
I don't feel like rocking
Since my baby's gone
So don't rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
[Verse 1]
Before you drop that quarter
Keep one thing in mind
You got a heart-broke hillbilly
Standing here in line
I've been down and lonely
Ever since she left
Before you punch that number
Could I make one request
[Chorus]
Don't rock the jukebox
I wanna hear some Jones
'Cause my heart ain't ready
For the Rolling Stones
I don't feel like rocking
Since my baby's gone
So don't rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
[Verse 2]
I ain't got nothing
Against rock and roll
But when your heart's been broken
You need a song that's slow
Ain't nothing like a steel guitar
To drown a memory
Before you spend your money baby
Play a song for me
[Chorus]
Don't rock the jukebox
I wanna hear George Jones
'Cause my heart ain't ready
For the Rolling Stones
I don't feel like rocking
Since my baby's gone
So don't rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
[Outro]
Yeah, don't rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
