My backyard is an Illinois farm
And yours is a bend in the Hudson River
Her backyard is Sunset Boulevard
And his is the heart of the Mojave Desert
My backyard's got an acre of prairie
And yours has miles and miles of pavement
But come rain or shine it's the same big sky
That's here to remind us we all gotta make it
Some folks say to stake your claim
And fence it in but I see it different
Come on out to the big backyard
It ain't mine it ain't yours it's all of ours
Now my backyard is a redwood forest
And yours is a rocky shore in New England
Her backyard is the streets of New York
And his is the hum of the LA freeway
My backyard has got a blanket of fog
And yours has a whole lot of sunny weather
But come rain or shine it's the same big sky
That's here to remind us we belong together
Some folks say to stake your claim
And fence it in but I see it different
Come on out to the big backyard
It ain't mine it ain't yours it's all of ours
Wherever you ramble wherever you roam
Whoever you are we've all gotta live here
However you march to the beat of your drum
Everyone's shining in the big backyard
My backyard sure is beautiful
But it's getting hard to see through all the fences
And your backyard used to stretch so far
But now it's coming up short and it seems so senseless
How some folks say to stake your claim
And fence it in why can't we see it different?
Come on out to the big backyard
It ain't mine it ain't yours it's all of ours
Out in the big backyard it's all of ours
