By My Side

Yeah, I'd rather be down and broke
Than doing this on my own
As long as you're by my side
Yeah, it's gon' be alright
I'd rather have nothing else
Than doing this by myself
As long as you're by my side
It's gon' be alright

I would rather trip and fall with every single stride
Than walkin' through this life without you by my side
I would rather cough every time I take a breath
Than think of never speakin' out your name again, damn
Robitussin, kids are really growin' up, my son an older brother
Daughter got me 'round her finger, I might blow the budgеt
Buy them anything they wanted, and it's no discussion, yеah
I spend more on my dog than I do on me
Got the fresh cut grass, get it mowed every week
I got the brand new whip with the two car seats
But can't leave, wife keeps on losin' the keys, damn

You are my favorite thing
You are my favorite thing
You are my favorite thing
Yeah, that's why I'd rather be

Down and broke
Than doing this on my own
As long as you're by my side
Yeah, it's gon' be alright
I'd rather have nothing else
Than doing this by myself
As long as you're by my side
It's gon' be alright

Woah, I would rather be with you and lose all of my vision
Than have to see a world without you even in it
I would rather be with you even if I was deaf
Than not be with you and hear 'bout the things you did instead, damn
Nah, that ain't happenin', we got it now
We built a firm foundation and got a solid ground
Planted seeds, a family tree, Modern House
Growin' old 'til our hair is grey and it's fallin' out
I wanna catch all these moments, don't wanna miss a day
But I need somethin' that's better than just a picture frame
Wish I could capture this feeling before it's gone
The best that I could do is just put it here in a song, 'cause

You are my favorite thing
You are my favorite thing
You are my favorite thing
Yeah, that's why I'd rather be

Down and broke
Than doing this on my own
As long as you're by my side
Yeah, it's gon' be alright
I'd rather have nothing else
Than doing this by myself
As long as you're by my side
It's gon' be alright
