Discover the story of the song > Backwards – Rascal Flatts

This song is about a guy the protagonist meets at a bar who tells him that when you play a country song backwards, you get all the things you lost back. The protagonist is amazed by this idea and the guy goes on to explain that when you play a country song backwards, you not only get your material things back like your house, dog, and truck, but you also get your relationships back, like your ex-wives and first real love. It's a little crazy and absurd, but that's what happens when you play a country song backwards.
