George Jones – If I Could Put Them All Together (I’d Have You), is a song by American country singer George Jones. Composed by Even Stevens, it was released as a single on Epic Records in 1977 and peaked at #24 on the Billboard country singles chart, a dismal showing for a George Jones record. Despite being a «stone country» song that Jones promoted with several television appearances (including Marty Robbins’ TV show), it failed to find a wider audience.

George Jones – If I Could Put Them All Together (I’d Have You) Lyrics
I guess I ran to Rhonda for her sympathy
Julieanne does all she can to take your chains off me
The next in line is Caroline she has your long black hair
I can close my eyes and make believe that you are lying there
If I could put them all together I’d have you
But that’s more than any mortal man can do
So I’m drawn to the neon lights and tortured by the truth
If I could put them all together I’d have you
— Instrumental —
I thought that Maryanne could keep me satisfied
But your memory stares back at me when I look into her eyes
It’s hard to be contented with all the rest
Once you’ve loved the perfect woman what you have is the very best
If I could put them all togeth I’d have you
But that’s more than any mortal man can do
So I’m drawn to the neon lights and tortured by the truth
If I could put them all together I’d have you
If I could put them all together I’d have you…
