Текст, перевод и аккорды “Your Own Backyard”
(Dimucci/Fasce) I've been sitting here thinking When I started out drinking I went on to the dope surely just to change my life I cried a tear and a beer for me I lost everything near and dear to me Namely my children and my wife I've an idea of having a good time Was sitting up there with my head between my knees Well I knew everything there was to know Everything except which way to go I cried oh God please take me will you take me please (Yeah) Many a time (well I) swore up and down I don't need none of this junk that's a floating round I could quit - let me finish what I've got After all this stuff sure costs a lot Then I get my feet back on the ground Now I can't tell nobody how to live their life Even though inside we're all the same All these things are toys I was playing with You know, you know we're all losers in the end (Well now) since I've been straight I haven't been in my cups I ain't shooting downs I ain't using ups You know I'm still as crazy as a loon Even though I don't run out and cop a spoon Thank the good Lord God well I've had enough I've got a friend and his name is Robertson He told me "Don't need to be stoned to know a friend Believe me you're all beautiful people just the way you are Tell me, what has that stuff done for you so far?" I've been sitting here thinking I've been winking I've been blinking Well I don't have to sit around no more on the nod With my head in the air (you know) I can do anything I can do it straight I can do it so much better now Its gotta start Right here in your own back yard Yes it's gotta start back your own back yard Everybody has their own beautiful back yard You might find oil wells in your own back yard You might find anything in your own back yard You might even find my shadow in your own back yard (Who knows what you might dig up)
