[E]
Blackboard creature preaching at me, acting like he wrote the golden rule.
[A] Shaking his fist and speeching at me, [E] shouting from his soapbox like a fool.
[B] Come Sunday morning he's lying in bed [A] with his eyes all red from the wine in his head
wishing he was dead when he ought to be heading [Eb] for a [E] Sunday school.
[A] [E] Clean up your [A] home backyard.
Oh don't you hand [E] me none of your wine.
[A] Clean up [B] your home backyard.
[A] You tend to your business, [E] I'll tend to mine.
Drugstore cowboy criticizing, acting like he's better than you and me.
[A] Standing on the sidewalk supervising, [E] telling everybody how they ought to be.
[B] Come closing time most every [A] night he locks up tight and out go the lights.
And he ducks out of sight and he cheats on his [E] wife with his employees.
[A] [E]
Clean up your home [A] backyard.
Oh don't you hand me none of [E] your wine.

[A]
[B] [E]
Armchair quarterbacks always moaning.
Second guessing people all day long.
[A] Pushing and pulling and hanging on and [E] always messing where they don't belong.
[B] When you get right down to the nitty gritty, [A] isn't it a pity that in this big city not
one little bitty man let me could have [E] been a little bit of wrong.
Clean up your [A] home backyard.
Oh don't you hand me [E] none of your wine.
Clean [B] up your home backyard.
[A] You tend to your business, I'll [E] tend to mine.
[A] [E] Clean up [B] your home backyard.
