Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oldest girl with her mama's grin
Bare feet flying through the yard again
Maddison Mae with a pocketful of rocks
Laughing at the world from the porch swing box
Best friend days in the backyard sun
Two little hearts and a whole lot of run
Ups and downs in that ponytail wind
But you kept on shining, time and again
[Pre-Chorus]
You learned to bend, you learned to stand
Kept a brave heart in a steady hand
And every road that brought you home
Showed me how far a girl can go
[Chorus]
Happy birthday, Maddison Mae
Twenty-six and looking your way
Through the hills and the hard rain too
Baby, I'm so proud of you
Happy birthday, Maddison Mae
Still my girl in your own bright way
Raise a glass, let the whole room say
Maddison Mae, Maddison Mae
[Verse 2]
There were tears on the kitchen floor
There were slammed-shut doors and then some more
There were days that the sky felt gray
And days you danced that gray away
I watched you grow through the jagged parts
Kept your hope like a spark in your heart
Now you're strong and you're sweet and true
And I see so much of me in you
[Pre-Chorus]
You learned to bend, you learned to stand
Kept a brave heart in a steady hand
And every mile that led you here
Made your whole bright story clear
[Chorus]
Happy birthday, Maddison Mae
Twenty-six and looking your way
Through the hills and the hard rain too
Baby, I'm so proud of you
Happy birthday, Maddison Mae
Still my girl in your own bright way
Raise a glass, let the whole room say
Maddison Mae, Maddison Mae
[Bridge]
From little girl to woman grown
You made a life that's yours alone
If the road gets rough, remember this
You've always had a place in my kiss
[Chorus]
Happy birthday, Maddison Mae
Twenty-six and looking your way
Through the hills and the hard rain too
Baby, I'm so proud of you
Happy birthday, Maddison Mae
Still my girl in your own bright way
Raise a glass, let the whole room say
Maddison Mae, Maddison Mae

Upbeat country with strummed acoustic guitar, bright fiddle fills, steady kick-snare groove, and a walking bass line; verse tells warm family memories, pre-chorus opens into gratitude, chorus lifts with stomp-clap energy and singalong gang vocals on the name. Lead vocal is close-mic and conversational with doubled hook lines, harmony on the last word of each chorus, fiddle turnarounds between sections, and a glossy but rootsy mix that feels roadside-fresh and radio-ready., country
