I'm a People is an album by American country music artist George Jones. It was released in 1966 on the Musicor Records label. The album hit number one on the country chart.
George Bedard of AllMusic wrote, "One of the more consistent Musicor offerings, it features a good mix of uptempo honky tonk and novelty ("I'm a People", "Ship of Love" and "Blindfold of Love"), ballads (the eerie "The Lonely Know My Secret"), and sacred songs ("If You Believe" and "Old Brush Arbors"). "Four-O-Thirty Three" and the title track were both top ten country hits. I'm a People also includes the "World pf Forgotten People" written by fellow country star Loretta Lynn.
