Lyrics
Verse 1
Pouring Jameson slow in a glass by the barThinking 'bout the miles and the places we areLas Vegas heat, your hand in mineLaughing through the desert like we owned that county line
Pre‑Chorus
Every hard day gets lighter somehowWhen I see that wild smile on you now
Chorus
Emily, come on, raise it up highTo the good times burning bright in our eyesFrom Vegas nights to the rodeo dustBull rides, back roads, and a whole lot of usHey Emily, I love you, that's the truthEvery cowboy thing feels better with youHey! Hey! Let the whole room singEmily, you're my everything
Verse 2
We chase the gates when the bull pens openBoot heels beat and the old truck's smokingYou cheer so loud when a rider hangs onThen we two-step till the last band’s gone
Pre‑Chorus
And when the world runs rough and meanYou’re the best damn part of every scene
Chorus
Emily, come on, raise it up highTo the good times burning bright in our eyesFrom Vegas nights to the rodeo dustBull rides, back roads, and a whole lot of usHey Emily, I love you, that's the truthEvery cowboy thing feels better with youHey! Hey! Let the whole room singEmily, you're my everything
Bridge
Just your voice and that steel guitarTell me again how lucky we areNo crowd, no lights, no need to pretendI’d choose you, Emily, again and again
Final Chorus
Emily, come on, raise it up highTo the good times burning bright in our eyesFrom Vegas nights to the rodeo dustBull rides, back roads, and a whole lot of usHey Emily, I love you, that's the truthEvery cowboy thing feels better with youHey! Hey! Let the whole room singEmily, you're my everything
Outro
Jameson down, but the memory staysHere’s to you and all our good old daysEmily, I love you, that’s the truthEvery road I want leads back to you
