Back in Our Own Back Yard Songtext
von Billie Holiday and Her Orchestra

The bird with feathers of blue
Is waiting for you
Back in your own backyard
You′ll see your castles in Spain

Through your window pane
Back in your own backyard
Oh you can go to the East
Go to the West

But someday you'll come
Weary at heart
Back where you started from


You′ll find your happiness lies
Right under your eyes
Back in your own backyard

The bird with feathers of blue
Is waiting for you
Back in your own backyard
You'll see your castles in Spain

Through your window pane
Back in your own backyard
Oh you can go to the East

Go to the West
But someday you'll come
Weary at heart


Back where you started from
You′ll find your happiness lies
Right under your eyes
Back in your own backyard
