During the sixties decade, Jones's success on the country charts continued. He reached the top of the Billboard country songs list twice in the early decade with "She Thinks I Still Care" and "Tender Years". He later topped the charts in 1967 with "Walk Through This World with Me". Among his highest-charting top ten singles that decade were "The Window Up Above" (1960), "Aching, Breaking Heart" (1962), "A Girl I Used to Know" (1962), "You Comb Her Hair" (1963), "The Race Is On" (1964), "As Long as I Live" (1968) and "I'll Share My World with You" (1969). Jones also collaborated with Margie Singleton, Melba Montgomery and Gene Pitney respectively during the decade. Among his collaborative releases with the artists were "Waltz of the Angels" (1962), "We Must Have Been Out of Our Minds" (1963) and "Things Have Gone to Pieces" (1965).

Jones had more commercial success during the seventies. He reached the number one spot on both the Billboard and RPM country charts with "The Grand Tour" (1974) and "The Door" (1974). Most of his singles reached the top ten during the first half of the decade: "A Good Year for the Roses" (1970), "Right Won't Touch a Hand" (1971), "Loving You Could Never Be Better" (1972) and "A Picture of Me (Without You)" (1973). As the seventies progressed, his singles reached the top ten and top 20 with less frequency. In 1980, Jones returned to the number one spot with "He Stopped Loving Her Today". It was followed in the eighties by the chart-topping singles "Still Doin' Time" (1981) and "I Always Get Lucky with You" (1983). Thirteen additional singles reached the top ten during the eighties. Among his most successful were "I'm Not Ready Yet" (1980), "Shine On (Shine All Your Sweet Love on Me)" (1982), "She's My Rock" (1984), "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes" and "I'm a One-Woman Man" (1988).

Jones's singles continued to make charting positions into the nineties. The songs "You Couldn't Get the Picture" (1991), "I Don't Need Your Rockin' Chair" (1992), "High-Tech Redneck" (1993) and "Choices" (1999) reached the top 40 of the Billboard country list. In the 2000s, a duet with Garth Brooks reached the top 40 of the country chart. During the nineties, Jones was featured on several singles by other artists. Both "A Few Ole Country Boys" (a duet with Randy Travis) and "You Don't Seem to Miss Me" (a duet with Patty Loveless) made the top 20 of the Billboard country chart.
