Rascal Flatts - Backwards lyrics

Your rating:

I was sitting on a bar stool
In a barbecue joint in Tennessee
When this old boy walked in
And he sat right down next to me

I could tell he'd been through some hard times
There were tear stains on his old shirt
And he said, "You wanna know what you get
When you play a country song backwards?"

You get your house back, you get your dog back
You get your best friend Jack back
You get your truck back, you get your hair back
You get your first and second wive back

Your front porch swing, your pretty little thing
Your bling, bling, bling and a diamond ring
You get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley
First night in jail with Charlie

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards

Well, I never heard it said quite like that
It hit me in the face 'cause that's where I'm at
I almost fell flat out on the floor, he said
"Wait a minute, that's not all, there's even more

You get your mind back, your nerves back
Your first heartattack back
You get your pride back, get your life back
And you get your first real love back

You get your big screen TV
A DVD and a washing machine
You get the pond and the lawn and the bail and the mower
You go back where you don't know her

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards
Oh, play that song

We sat there and shot the bull
About how it would be
If we could turn it all around
And change this C R A P

You get your house back, you get your dog back
You get your best friend Jack back
You get your truck back, you get your hair back
You get your first and second wive back

Your front porch swing, your pretty little thing
Your bling, bling, bling and a diamond ring
You get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley
First night in jail with Charlie

You get your mind back, your nerves back
Your first heartattack back
You get your pride back, get your life back
And you get your first real love back

You get your big screen TV
A DVD and a washing machine
You get the pond and the lawn and the bail and the mower
You go back where you don't know her

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards
