BACKWARDS      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   And then 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 Jackson back   You get your truck back   You 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   Your get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley   That old black cat named Charlie      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 Achey Breaky Heart back   You get your pride back   You get your life back   You get your first real love back      You get your big screen TV, DVD and a washing machine   You get the pond and the lawn   The break 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   Woo!!!      We sat there and talked about how it would be   If we could just rewind it all and go back in T-I-M-E      You get your house back   You get your dog back   You get your best friend Jackson back   You get your truck back   You 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   Your get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley   That old black cat named Charlie      You get your mind back   Your nerves back   Your Achey Breaky Heart back   You get your pride back   You get your life back   You get your first real love back      You get your big screen TV, DVD and a washing machine   You get the pond and the lawn   The break 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
