Rascal FlattsBackwards Lyrics:
I was sittin’ on a wooden stool
In a barbecue joint in Tennessee
When this ole 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
then he said, “Ya wanna know what ya get
When you play a country song backwards?”
Ya get your house back, ya get your dog back
Ya get your best friend Jackson back
Ya get your truck back, ya get your hair back
Ya get your first and second jobs back
Your front porch swing, goin' ding a ling a ling, and
Your bling, bling, bling and a diamond ring
You get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley
That old black cat named 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”
Ya get your mind back, your nerves back
Your achey breaky heart back
You get your pride back, get your life back
And you get your first real love back
Your big screen TV
A DVD and a washing machine
You get the pond and the lawn, and the rake, and the mower
You go back when life was slower
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 talked
About how it would be
If we could just rewind it all around
And go back in T I M E
Ya get your house back, ya get your dog back
Ya get your best friend Jackson back
Ya get your truck back, ya get your hair back
Ya get your first and second jobs back
Your front porch swing, goin' ding a ling a ling
Your bling, bling, bling and a diamond ring
You get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley
That old black cat named Charlie
Ya get your mind back, your nerves back
Your achey breaky heart 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 rake, and the mower
You go back when life was slower
It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that’s what you get
When you play a country song backwards
