Your Backyard Lyrics - Singles - Burton Cummings

I wrote you long love letters, Mama, I sent 'em on day by day 

Need you now even more than I did before 

As I'm lookin', here's your Daddy comin' with a big ol' shotgun too 

Lovin' situation look mighty poor 

So if you're really wonderin' what I'm doin' in your backyard 

I told you baby, I'd beat it home so soon 

But if you're really worryin' 'bout what I'm doin' in your backyard 

Come on out later I'll show you by the light of the moon 

I had some dreams and fortune really, Mama, I got carried away 

And lookin' back even more than I did before 

As I'm leapin', creepin', hidin', sleepin' here's your Daddy with a shotgun too 

Lovin' situation ain't nothin' but poor 

So if you're really worried 'bout what I'm doin' in your backyard 

I told you, baby, I's beatin' it home so soon 

Well if you're really worryin' 'bout what I'm doin' in your backyard 

Come on out later I'll show you by the light of the moon 

Baby, thinkin' 'bout reelin' back 

Wonderin' why I'm standin' here cryin', honey, lookin' in your backyard 

Don't ya worry 'bout nothin', ya got nothin' on your mind but me 

But as I'm layin' on my back about 

Thinkin' 'bout summertime gettin' back all the way 

Everything I see, honey, reminding me 

Come on get your lovin' man 

Come on get him while he's hot, get him on the run 

Babe, I here your lookin' but really too blind to see 

Oh, hey, what ya gonna think 

About wham-bam, thank you ma'am 

Where you goin' on the wildwood trail 

Everything I see, honey, reminding me 

Baby, might be thinkin' 'bout, really livin' back 

Layin' back, standin' in your backyard 

Told you, baby, I's beatin' it home so soon 

If you're really wonderin' what I'm doin' in your backyard 

Come on out later, babe, I'll show you by the light of the moon
