Backwards (Acoustic) Lyrics by Rascal Flatts

Hannah Montana: The Movie (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

2009

[Verse 1]
I was sittin' on a wooden 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
'Cause there were tear stains on his old shirt
Then he said, "Do you wanna know what you get
When you play a country song backwards?"

[Chorus]
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
You 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
It sounds a little crazy, a little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get when you play a country song backwards

[Verse 2]
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" (Haha)

[Chorus]
You get your mind back
Get your nerves back
Your achy breaky heart back
You get your pride back
You get your life back
You get your first real love back
Your big screen TV, DVD and a washin' 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 crazy), a little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get when you play a country song backwards
Oh, play that song
Woo

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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
You 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
You get your mind back
Get your nerves back
Your achy breaky heart back
You get your pride back
You get your life back
You get your first real love back
Your big screen TV, DVD and a washin' 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
