Standard (EADGBE)

 INTRO

I was sitting on a bar 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 tearstains 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 wives back

Your front porch swing

Your pretty little thing

Your bling bling bling

And a diamond ring

Your get your farm and a barn and the boat And the harley

First night in jail with Charlie

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"

Chorus 2

Ya get your mind back

Your nerves back

Your first heart attack back

You get your pride back,

You 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

Don’t know her

It sounds a little crazy

A little scattered and absurd

But that’s what you get

When you play a country song backwards

Verse 3

We sat there and shot the bull

About how it would be

If we could turn it all around

 And change this -R--P

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 wives back

Your front porch swing

Your pretty little thing

Your bling bling bling

And a diamond ring

Your get your farm and a barn

And the boat And the harley

First night in jail with Charlie

Ya get your mind back

Your nerves back

Your first heart attack back

You get your pride back,

You 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

Don’t know her

It sounds a little crazy

A little scattered and absurd

But that’s what you get

When you play a country song backwards!
