COUNTY ROAD 9 Verse 1 It started out on County Road 9, Backroad nights and nowhere to be, You in that Durango, me riding shotgun, Just you and me, wild and free. I already had Chyanne beside me, Then August brought our little girl, Kylie came and changed our whole world, And somehow you changed mine too. Pre-Chorus November came, you asked me forever, January, we bought our first home, We did it all a little backwards, But somehow we got it right all along. Chorus From County Road 9 to the backyard vows, From sixteen section to this house, From raising a glass to laying it down, We’ve changed a lot since we were younger somehow. We’ve fought, we’ve laughed, we’ve cried, we’ve grown, Built a family and made this home, And after everything life put us through, If I had to do it all again, I’d choose you. Yeah, Bam Bam, I’d choose you. Verse 2 We were that couple hitting the section, Four-wheelers running, living too fast, Then you totaled that Durango, And somehow we still made those memories last. We had our wild nights, we had our fights, We had days we didn’t get it right, But February twenty-twenty, You made Chyanne officially your own. You didn’t have to share your heart, But you gave her yours completely, And watching you love those girls Made me love you even more deeply. Chorus From County Road 9 to the backyard vows, From sixteen section to this house, From raising a glass to laying it down, We’ve changed a lot since we were younger somehow. We’ve fought, we’ve laughed, we’ve cried, we’ve grown, Built a family and made this home, And after everything life put us through, If I had to do it all again, I’d choose you. Yeah, Bam Bam, I’d choose you. Verse 3 Now you turn that ball cap backwards, Catch my eyes from across the room, And give me that same old smile Like you know exactly what you’re doing. You work hard for your girls, And somehow you still make time, You show up when you can, And they’ve got you wrapped around their little fingers every time. You cook, you love, you keep us going, You’re the daddy they can always count on, And somewhere between those crazy days You became the man I always needed. Bridge We don’t need the Friday nights, We don’t need the drinking or the crowd, We traded all those wild years For something that means more now. Just you and me, Netflix on, The girls asleep, the house finally quiet, And sometimes I look at you and think, Lord, we really made a life. If I could go back to that girl On that old County Road 9, I’d tell her, “Don’t let nothing come between you, Hold on when it gets hard sometimes. ‘Cause that boy sitting beside you Is gonna become your home, And every road you’re gonna travel, You won’t have to travel alone.” Final Chorus From County Road 9 to the backyard vows, From two crazy kids to this family now, Seven years and here we are, Still finding home inside each other’s arms. We’ve had our hell, we’ve had our heaven, And I’d still say yes, seven years later. Through every high and every low, Every road and every mile we’ve known, If God gave me the choice again, I’d still take your hand, I’d still say when— I’d still choose you. Outro So here’s to the house, Here’s to our girls, Here’s to the life We built in this world. Here’s to the boy I met on that road, Who became my husband, My family, my home. County Road 9 started our story, But it ain’t where our story ends. Seven years later, And I’d choose you every time again. I love you, Bam Bam.
