[Verse 1]
Ohio was a riverbank
A ten speed layin' in the weeds
Cannonball off an old rope swing
Long, long summer days

[Verse 2]
Tennessee was a guitar
First big dream of mine
If I made it, yeah, that'd be just fine
I just wanted to play
I just wanted to play, but

[Chorus]
Texas was green eyes crying goodbye
Was a long drive
A heartache I'm still trying to get through
Texas was you

[Verse 3]
Carolina was a black car
A big white number three
California was a yellow Jeep
Cruisin' down Big Sur
Haha

[Verse 4]
Georgia was a summer job
'Bama was a spring break
I got memories all over the place
But only one still hurts
Only one still hurts like

[Chorus]
Texas was green eyes crying goodbye
Was a long drive
A heartache I'm still trying to get through
Texas was you

[Chorus 2]
Texas was my whole life waving goodbye
'Thought I'd die
A heartache I'm still trying to get through
Texas was you

[Outro]
It'll always be you

Jason Aldean

After almost 15 years at the top of his format, reigning ACM “Artist of the Decade” Jason Aldean has seen trends come and go. Hell, he helped bring a few out of the shadows, like a Country-music Columbus making the mainstream’s first contact with hard rock (“Hicktown”), hip-hop (“Dirt Road Anthem”), and R&B (“Burnin’ It Down”). For 9, Aldean’s ninth studio project, he offers 16 interwoven tracks in an era of stand-alone singles and superstar EPs, holding his ground for a modern album with an old-school soul. A three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year, Aldean’s a card-carrying member of the Country’s elite headliners whose incendiary tours are nearing legendary status. Also a dominant force on the charts, he’s scored 23 Number Ones and notably, all eight of Aldean’s previous studio albums have been certified Gold or Platinum by the RIAA. He’s the only Country act in history to top the all-genre Billboard 200 four times (in a row, no less), racking up four billion streams and more than 18 million albums sold along the way.
