I'd Choose You Again

verse 1

I was raised down in Tennessee

She was a California girl

Never thought those two old roads

Would bring together two worlds

But we met down in Texas

And somewhere along the way

I looked into those pretty eyes

And my heart had made its choice that day

chorus

Thirty-eight years, and I still love you

Just like I did when our love was new

We've seen some sunshine, we've weathered some rain

We've laughed together, we've shared some pain

We raised our kids, we built our home

And through it all, we've never walked alone

If I could live my whole life through

I'd still choose me and you

verse 2

We got married and started dreaming

Made a life with our own two hands

There were bills to pay and babies to raise

And sometimes things didn't go as planned

But every night when the day was over

I'd find you there beside me

And I'd thank the good Lord above

For the woman who had chosen me

chorus

Thirty-eight years, and I still love you

Just like I did when our love was new

We've seen some sunshine, we've weathered some rain

We've laughed together, we've shared some pain

We raised our kids, we built our home

And through it all, we've never walked alone

If I could live my whole life through

I'd still choose me and you

bridge

Now our kids are grown, and most are gone

And we've got a little more time

We're making memories here in Arkansas

And I'm still proud to call you mine

We've traveled a long road

But there's one thing I know is true-

The best part of every mile

Was walking it with you

final chorus

Thirty-eight years, and I still love you

And every morning I still thank God for you

From Tennessee to California

Texas brought your heart to mine

And Arkansas is where we're living

The best days of our lives

If tomorrow gave me one more chance

I'd take your hand and say, "I do."

After all these years, my darling

I'd still choose you

outro

Yeah, thirty-eight years have come and gone

But my love for you keeps holding on

Bobbi-Jo, there's just one thing I'll always do...

If I had it all to live again

I'd spend every day with you...

I'd still choose you
