Playbacks and Promises

Heard a joke

about playing a record in reverse

Get your truck and your dog back,

rewrite the final verse

Well three years went by

and my yard was still bare And that old rusty Chevy

was rusting out there (hahaha)

But look at you walking right back up my drive

Like a country song spinning on a 45

I got my girl,

got my dog, got my keys

We're playing it backwards,

doing just what we please

(oh yeah)

Now the hound is asleep

by the front porch screen

And that truck's running smoother than it's ever been

Guess the spin of the needle

had to find its way home

To the sweet little house

where we used to roam

But look at you

walking right back up my drive

Like a country song spinning on a 45

I got my girl,

got my dog, got my keys

We're playing it backwards,

doing just what we please

(sweet darlin')

Yeah, we turned it right around

(mmmmm) Playing it backward to the sweetest sound
