Back Yardin Songtext
von Stompin’ Tom Connors

Back yardin′, back yardin' that′s a chit chat party in the garden
Just a BBQ with a friend or two where you don't give a... beg your pardon
That's Back Yardin′

I may go broke on a business deal and I phoned up Uncle Lou
He said when I′m back yardin' boy I don′t care what you do
Back yardin', back yardin′ that's a chit chat party in the garden
Just a BBQ with a friend or two where you don′t give a... beg your pardon
That's Back Yardin'

Well I′m on the phone trying to get a loan and I called up cousin Fred
He said when I′m back yardin' boy ya might as well be dead
Back yardin′, back yardin' that′s a chit chat party in the garden
Just a BBQ with a friend or two where you don't give a... beg your pardon
That′s Back Yardin'

Well I had to phone my rich Aunt Joan, would ya like to buy some shares?
She said when I'm back yardin′ boy I mind my own affairs
Back yardin′, back yardin' that′s a chit chat party in the garden
Just a BBQ with a friend or two where you don't give a... beg your pardon
That′s Back Yardin'


Old brother Clyde I can′t survive if I don't get some loot
He said when I'm back yardin′ brother I just don′t give a hoot
Back yardin', back yardin′ that's a chit chat party in the garden
Just a BBQ with a friend or two where you don′t give a... beg your pardon
That's Back Yardin′

Now don't ya know that business deal came through for me at last
And I really say this back yardin' stuff is really quite the gas
And everybody′s on the phone, my relatives wantin′ dough
I say it's too bad I′m back yardin' friends but there′s one place you can go
Back yardin', back yardin′ that's a chit chat party in the garden
Just a BBQ with a friend or two where you don't give a... beg your pardon
That′s Back Yardin′

Back yardin', back yardin′ that's a chit chat party in the garden
Just a BBQ with a friend or two where you don′t give a... beg your pardon
That's Back Yardin′

Back Yardin'
Back Yardin'
Back Yardin′
