No Longer the Kid
You've all heard the joke about country music, that if you play it backwards, you get your house back, your dog back, your truck back...etc....etc...
Well, on the new Rascal Flatts cd, they finally made a song about it.. haha
its called "BACKWARDS" and it goes....
I was sittin' on a bar stool
In a barbeque 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 he said -
"Ya wanna know what ya get when you
Play a country song backwards?"
Chorus
Ya get your house back
Ya get your dog back
Ya get your best friend Jack back
Ya get your truck back
Ya get your hair back
Ya get your first and second
wife back
Your front porch swing, Your
Pretty little thing
Your bling, bling, bling
And a diamond ring
You get your farm back and the barn
And the boat and the harley
First night in jail with Charlie
It sounds a little crazy,
A little scattered and absurb
But thats what you get when you
Play a country song backwards
Well, I never heard it quite said
Like that
It hit me in the face
'Cause thats where Im at
I almost fell flat out on the floor-
He said
"Wait a minute, that's not all,
There's even more"
Chorus
You get your mind back
Your nerves back
Your first heart attack back
You get your pride back
Get your life back
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
The bail and the mower
You get to go back where you
Dont know her
It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurb
But thats what you get when you
Play a country song backwards
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
Repeat both choruses
Ya get your house back
Ya get your dog back
Ya get your best friend Jack back
Ya get your truck back
Ya get your hair back
Ya get your first and second
wife back
Your front porch swing, Your
Pretty little thing
Your bling, bling, bling
And a diamond ring
You get your farm back and the barn
And the boat and the harley
First night in jail with Charlie
It sounds a little crazy,
A little scattered and absurb
But thats what you get when you
Play a country song backwards
You get your mind back
Your nerves back
Your first heart attack back
You get your pride back
Get your life back
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
The bail and the mower
You get to go back where you
Dont know her
