The song was released on January 14, 1956 and was one of the fourteen songs included on Jones' debut album with Starday Records in 1957.

According to Bob Allen's book George Jones: The Life and Times of a Honky Tonk Legend, Edwards had grown up just across the road from Jones near Saratoga, Texas, and, after a stint in the Coast Guard, tracked Jones down after a show in Beaumont and showed him several poems he had written, instigating a songwriting partnership.{{sfn|Allen, Bob|pp=102-103|1996}} Jones and Edwards would collaborate on some of George's biggest early hits, including his second #1 hit "Tender Years." "What Am I Worth" peaked at #7 on the country singles chart. Years later, Jones would recut the song again during his tenure with the Musicor label.
