[Bm] [E]
Back porch preacher preaching at me
Acting like he wrote the golden rule
[A] Shaking his fist and speaching at me
[E] Shouting from his sofa like a fool
[B] Come Sunday morning he's lying in [A] bed
His eyes all red from the wine
His head wishing he was dead
When he ought to be heading for a [E] Sunday school
Clean up your own [A] back yard
Oh don't you [E] hand me none of your wine
Clean [A] [B] up your own back yard
[A] You're into your business I [E] will tell you my
I'm into [A] my [B] business
[Eb] [E] Drugstore cowboy criticizing
Acting like he's better than you and me
[G]
[A] Standing on the sidewalk supervising
[Eb] [E] Telling everybody how they ought to be
[B] Dumb closing time most every night
[A] He locks up and he not go to the lights
And he ducks out of sight
And he cheats on his wife [E] with his employees
[A] [E] Clean up your [A] own back yard
Don't you hand me [E] none of your wine
Clean [B] up your own back yard
[A] You're into your business I [E] will tell you my
[A]
[B] [E] Armchair [Bm]
[E] [Em] quarterbacks [E] always moaning
Second guessing people all day long
[A] Pushing and pulling and hanging on
[Em] [E] Always missing where they don't belong
[B] When you get right down to the nitty [A] gritty
It's a little pity that in this big city
Not a one little bitty man let me
[Db] Could have been [E] a little bit of rock
[A] [E] Clean up your own [A] back yard
Oh don't you hand me don't [E] you hand me none of your wine
Clean [B] up your own back [A] yard
You're into your business I will [E] tell you my
Clean up [B] your own back yard
[A] You're into your business I will tell you my
[Em] [E]
