[Verse 1]
Sun on the fence
Mango drop soft
Barefoot in the yard
Cool water in the cup
Mama call my name
I answer, slow and sweet
Trouble pass the gate
When the rhythm meet my feet

[Pre-Chorus]
Easy now, easy
Let the night come down
Hold me in the middle
Of this little town

[Chorus]
Come back, come back
To the backyard rhythm
Come back, come back
Where the hurt stop givin’
Come back, come back
And the heart keep singin’
Backyard rhythm
Backyard rhythm

[Verse 2]
Blue shirt on the line
Swinging with the breeze
Brother on the steps
Clapping on the two and three
Neighbors got a smile
Passing through the heat
Even broken days
Can learn to move their feet

[Pre-Chorus]
Easy now, easy
Let the night come down
Hold me in the middle
Of this little town

[Chorus]
Come back, come back
To the backyard rhythm
Come back, come back
Where the hurt stop givin’
Come back, come back
And the heart keep singin’
Backyard rhythm
Backyard rhythm

[Bridge]
If the road get rough
If the rain stay long
We build a little fire
And lean into the song
One love in the dust
One breath, one drum
Till the morning show
What the night become

[Final Chorus]
Come back, come back
To the backyard rhythm
Come back, come back
Where the hurt stop givin’
Come back, come back
And the heart keep singin’
Backyard rhythm
Backyard rhythm
