"I'm Ragged But I'm Right" is a 1956 song written and recorded by various artists, most notably George Jones in 1956. The song is one Jones' best early works, and it was even included on his debut 1957 album. It was released on April 4, 1956 and did not chart.

"Ragged But Right" is defiant honky-tonk tune dedicated to blue-collar pride. The song was released in 1956 and has since taken its place as an early George Jones standard, included on multiple albums and performed live into the 1970s. Jones recorded the song in August 1955 and it was released in February 1956 as a single. The song didn't chart upon its release but became popular with audiences anyway. He often performed the song live during his early years with Starday and Mercury Records. Colin Escott later speculated in 1994, "George probably picked it up from the Gulf Coast legend, Moon Mullican, who played the same spots."
