Conor Clemmons - It Chose Me Lyrics

C'mon now...
Now I remember my first time standing on stage
It was 21 and over and lord knows I was under age
A karaoke bar with a fake ID
Everybody standing there staring at me
Then I heard em' say, what in the world
Til I started singing don't take the girl
When they ask me how'd I ended up in it
C'mon let me sit you down for a minute
Sing a couple songs, and then you'll see
I didn't choose country music
It chose me
Now I moved to Nashville to see where the green grass grows
A couple thousand miles, a couple hundred shows
Been places I never thought I'd see
People singing country songs along with me
Can't believe all the things I've done
When I look back to where I came from
When they ask me how'd I end up in it
Imma sit you down for a minute
I'll sing a couple songs, and then you'll see
I didn't choose country music
It chose me, yeah
Now when they ask me how'd I end up in it
Imma sit you right down for a minute
Ill sing a couple songs, and then you'll see
I didn't choose country music
I didn't choose country music
No, I didn't choose country music
It chose me
It chose me
It chose me
Y'all I saw Garth Brooks when I was 16 years old at the Charlotte Coliseum
I grew up on country music
Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson some of the greats, you know
Travis Tritt, Trisha Yearwood, Allison Krauss, Faith Hill, The Chicks, Jo Dee Messina,
Toby Keith, Blake Shelton, Vince Gill
I could go on and on y'all
