Seely's next two follow-up singles reached the US country top 20: "It's Only Love" (1966) and "A Wanderin' Man" (1967). In 1968, "I'll Love You More (Than You'll Need)" reached the number ten position. She also released three more studio albums during this time. This included Thanks, Hank!, which peaked at number 17 on the country albums chart in 1967. Moving to Decca Records, she paired with Jack Greene for a series of duet recordings. Their first single, "Wish I Didn't Have to Miss You", reached number two on the US country chart in 1969. Spawning an album, the project peaked at number 18 on the country albums chart in 1970. In 1973, Seely had her first top ten single in four years with "Can I Sleep in Your Arms". It was followed by the top 20 US and Canadian country song "Lucky Ladies". Both were included on an album of the same name, which peaked at number 15 on the country albums chart in 1973.

Seely continued recording singles which made chart appearances on the US and Canadian song lists through the late 1970s. Her final chart appearance was 1978's "Take Me to Bed", which reached number 97. During this period, she also released a live album with Jack Greene. The pair teamed together in 1981 for a studio album of re-recordings titled Greatest Hits. Seely then self-released her next studio project on cassette in 1990. It was followed by an album of Christmas music in 1994 called Number One Christmas. She has since released five additional studio albums. Her most recent was 2020's An American Classic, which was issued by Curb Records.
