Twelve steps in to your backyard

through tall green grass, and into the world
Ain't it feelin right
Ain't it feelin nice
in your own backyard
in your own backyard

Through dirty winding road, around your feet
that carries me along
and into the beat
Didn't need to go so far 

to find what you were thirsting for 

Didn't need to go so far
to find what you were looking for

Because it was always beside
just right behind

right of your hand
you just didn't know

it was in your own backyard

Twelve steps in to your backyard
Just twelve steps in to your backyard
Twelve steps in to your backyard
Twelve steps in to your backyard
Twelve steps in to your backyard
Twelve steps in to your backyard
