This is translated as "we had to take our small urban butt to the outhouse"? Is it correct? What does "behinds" mean here?

ex)Even with all the fun times, there was one thing about Grandmother's farm that I just could not stand. The bathroom facilities. Since indoor plumbing was a city luxury, Grandmother Ellen told us we had to take our little big city behinds to the outhouse...

Ok, it means "butt", so does "city behinds" mean butts of people from a city?
