I was sitting on a bar stool, In a barbecue joint in Tennessee. When this old boy walked in an 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 wat 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 & second wifes 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 charley. 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 and your nerves back. Your first heart attack back You get your pride back you get your life back Get your first real love back You get your big screen TV DVD and a washing machine You get your pond and the lawn and the bail and the mower You go back where you don't know 'er It sounds a little crazy A little scattered and absurd But that's what you get when you play a country song backwards
We sat there and shot the bull about how it would be If we turned it all around and changed this C-R-A-P
