I don't know how much input singers have in what they choose to sing and what is chosen or available for them.
George has always had good songs. Either songwriters make sure he gets their best or he only picks the best. No "Watermelon Crawls" for him.

I would imagine that after you have a couple #1 hits, top songwriters would feed you great tunes to cut.

Nashville is a music factory. The record companies have a system & division of labor they prefer. Get a talented singer, put them in a studio with the record company's chosen producer & session musicians, and have them record songs they didn't write. It's been this way for decades. The whole outlaw movement was a rebellion against this system. The record companies like to control the whole process with a select few professionals. However, songwriters are often outside of their control. There are always a ton of songs floating around. George Strait had his pick of any song for 20+ years. Everyone else was picking after him.
