Country Songs About Family: Celebrating Kinship in Country Music

I turn down the dirt road that leads to your old home The first time I've been back since you've been gone Winding through the trees brings a rush of memories That big oak by the shed used to hold my tire swing I dont know the new owners, Sure hope they wont mind Not planning to get out, just gonna sit here and cry Nothing could prepare me For a loss like yours By title you were Mamaw By love, so much more I'm in no hurry but also can not wait to see your face again When I get to Heavens Gate At least once a week we would talk on the phone There’s so much you’ve missed since you passed on Last year I got married, we’re plan’n a family Pray someday I can be the mom my mom was to me Nothing could prepare me For a loss like yours By title you were Mamaw By love, so much more I'm in no hurry but also can not wait to see your face again When I get to Heavens Gate Im only in town for the weekend, Came to visit an old friend Thought Id take some time To sit and talk to you again Nothing could prepare me For a loss like yours By title you were Mamaw By love, so much more I'm in no hurry but also can not wait to see your face again When I get to Heavens Gate Mmm mmm mmm Yeah, I'm in no hurry but also can not wait to see your face again When I get to Heavens Gate

(Verse 1: Rachel, Joey, Ross) Rachel’s wearin’ camo, struttin’ through the pines, Joey’s fryin’ fish, sayin’, “Girl, you’re finer than moonshine!” Ross is drinkin’ shine, talkin’ ‘bout fossils, While we’re racin’ four-wheelers, dodgin’ all the hassles. (Chorus) We’re redneck friends, keep it all in the fam, Sippin’ cold beer and not givin’ a damn. Talkin’ ‘bout huntin’, ridin’ through the mud, Life’s a little wild, but it’s all in the blood! (Verse 2: Chandler, Monica, Phoebe) Chandler’s tellin’ jokes ‘bout his cousin’s wife, Monica’s grillin’ ribs, lovin’ this life. Phoebe’s pickin’ banjo, singin’ “Smelly Raccoon,” Sayin’, “Y’all, I swear I saw it howl at the moon!” (Verse 3: All Six Friends) We’re shootin’ off fireworks, blowin’ up the night, Joey’s chasin’ chickens, Ross is lookin’ for a fight. Rachel’s got her truck stuck deep in the mud, But down in Alabama, that just means more fun! (Bridge) We love our trucks and keep ‘em clean, In Alabama, family’s always on the scene! (Chorus) We’re redneck friends, keep it all in the fam, Sippin’ cold beer and not givin’ a damn. Talkin’ ‘bout huntin’, ridin’ through the mud, Life’s a little wild, but it’s all in the blood! (Outro) Yeah, we’re redneck friends, keepin’ it tight, In Alabama, you might be your own cousin, all right! But down here, love’s what you make of it, dude, In this redneck crew, we’re all kinda screwed!

[Verse] Met you in that small-town diner, stars were shining from above Caught your smile, a little wink and I knew it was love Days turned into months, and before we knew it, time had flown And soon enough we found ourselves calling this love our own [Verse 2] Summer nights and moonlit dances, we took it day by day Laughter echoing through the fields, as we made our own way Your hand in mine, that sparkle in your eyes I'd never trade Now here we are a year later, a little girl that we made [Chorus] We've laughed and cried and held on tight, through every twist and turn With baby steps and lullabies, so many things to learn Now it's time to take that leap, with friends and family near We'll walk that aisle as husband and wife, our future bright and clear [Verse 3] You wore that white dress like a dream, our daughter in your arms With you, it’s where I’m meant to be, away from the world’s alarms Together we’ve faced ups and downs, we've come so far my dear Standing on the verge of forever, our love so bright and clear [Chorus] We've laughed and cried and held on tight, through every twist and turn With baby steps and lullabies, so many things to learn Now it's time to take that leap, with friends and family near We'll walk that aisle as husband and wife, our future bright and clear [Bridge] As the years unfold before us, with joy and some mistakes We’ll keep our hearts together, a love that never breaks Through every storm and sunny day, we’ll cherish what we’ve made Our family growing stronger, and I'll never be afraid

[Verse] Beneath the southern sky with stars in our eyes, We danced till the morning light, She whispered my name in a sweet lullaby, The world felt just right. [Verse 2] We met at the county fair, a summer romance, Sparks flew from the very first glance, Her laugh was the song, I never stood a chance, In love’s perfect trance. [Chorus] We're gonna make it, there's no turning back, With a ring and a promise, on life's winding track, Hand in hand, we’re standing tall, Together forever, we’ll have it all. [Verse 3] Mama's baking pies and fixing her hair, Papa’s in his best, he’s playing it fair, Lovers all around, there’s magic in the air, Our future is waiting there. [Verse 4] The chapel’s all set, the family’s gathered tight, Candles are glowing, everything's so right, She walks down the aisle, she's my guiding light, In her dress of pure white. [Bridge] When the preacher says the words, and we make our vow, Every dream we've dreamt will start right now, No more tomorrows, it's only today, Forever in love, come what may.

**(Verse 1)** Underneath those neon lights, where the jukebox played our song, You were dancing like a wildflower, and I knew right then you’d belong. With your laugh like summer rain, and your heart so open wide, We found love in the corner booth, where dreams and music collide. **(Chorus)** At Grizzly's Bar, where we first met, Two souls together with no regrets. Country tunes under a starry sky, And now we’re building our life as time goes by. You whisper to me about orca whales, While I cheer for the home team when they hit the trails. A daughter’s laughter fills this sweet embrace— In this little world of ours, we’ve found our place. **(Verse 2)** Remember that night by the bonfire glow? We sang to the moon till it felt like home. Your eyes sparkled brighter than all those stars above— Every note in that melody sang out our love. **(Chorus)** At Grizzly's Bar, where we first met, Two souls together with no regrets. Country tunes under a starry sky, And now we’re building our life as time goes by. You whisper to me about orca whales, While I cheer for the home team when they hit the trails. A daughter’s laughter fills this sweet embrace— In this little world of ours, we’ve found our place. **(Bridge)** Now we're dreaming 'bout forever beneath that old oak tree; Planning a wedding with family all around us—just you and me. With every step on this winding road ahead of us so clear; Through every joy and sorrow shared—we’ll conquer all fear. **(Chorus)** At Grizzly's Bar, where it all began— From late-night talks to holding hands. Country tunes under a starry sky; In love’s sweet dance is where we'll fly high. You whisper to me about orca whales; While I cheer for the home team when they hit the trails. A daughter’s laughter fills this sweet embrace— In this little world of ours... oh baby! We've found our place. **(Outro)** So here’s to us as we raise a glass high— To love built strong as an endless sky; Together we'll write each chapter anew— With country hearts beating just for me and you.
