I wasn't built for the hustle
I gotta take my time
Some work ain't about the muscle
It's about doing it right
Some people try to keep me distracted
But I only got one life
I gotta put my seeds in the good earth
If I'm gonna watch the flowers rise
Baby, won't you open my eyes?

I gotta get back to the garden
Got to get back to my own dreams
I gotta get back to the garden
Take care of the world that's taking care of me

I wasn't looking for the gold rush
I was trying to follow the stars
Talk about money baby too much
That path will rot your heart
We only get this love for a lifetime
Oh, we gotta soak it in
So open every door, open every window
If you wanna let the sunshine in
Baby, I know where to begin

I gotta get back to the garden
Got to get back to my own dreams
I Gotta get back to the garden
Take care of the world that's taking care of me

I gotta get back to the garden
Got to get back to my own dreams
I Gotta get back to the garden
Take care of the world that's taking care of me

I gotta get back to the
(Living too fast, can we slow down?)
I gotta get back to the garden
(Living too fast, can we slow down?)
Ooh
(Living too fast, can we slow down?)
I gotta get back to the garden
(Living too fast can we slow down?)
I gotta get back to my own dreams
I gotta get back to the garden
(Living too fast, can we slow down?)
I gotta get back to the Sun and the rain
And the joy and the pain and the freedom

I gotta get back to the garden
Got to get back to my own dreams
I gotta get back to the garden
Take care of the world that's taking care of me

I gotta get back to the garden
Got to get back to my own dreams
I gotta get back to the garden
Take care of the world that's taking care of me

I gotta get back to the garden
Got to get back to my own dreams
I gotta get back to the garden
Take care of the world that's taking care of me

Hey, ooh
(Oh, back to the garden)
Oh, I gotta get back
(Oh, back to the garden)
Hey, hey, you know I gotta get back
(Oh, back to the garden)
Sun and the rain, joy and the pain
(Oh, back to the garden)
You know I gotta get back
(Oh, back to the garden)
