Country Backwards Everyone has a story That they like to tell. They call it country music When things aren't going well. It's all about life's sadness And every kind of curse. I wonder what would happen If you sang country in reverse. The dog came back, Along with my life. When my best friend returned, He brought back my wife. Daddy's out of jail now. Out of the bottle I did crawl. When you sing country backwards, Good things happen after all. My teen daughter, she's not pregnant. There's no drugs inside the house. No one's raising my own children, I don't have a cheatin spouse. I still have my job, The bank didn't take my truck. When you sing country backwards, You're running high on luck. The dog came back, Along with my life. When my best friend returned, He brought back my wife. Daddy's out of jail now. Out of the bottle I did crawl. When you sing country backwards, Good things happen after all. B.G. Wetherby Enchanted Mountain Poems
