How do I get rid of standing water in my yard?

I have an EXCESSIVE amount of standing water in my yard. (Just an idea I took about 300+ gallons out today with a 5 gal bucket). I live in a house with a septic tank and the standing water sits over the field lines of the septic causing it to stay full making it hard for us to wash clothes, dishes, shower, etc. So with that being said things like plants or trees that take a lot of water will not work because the roots cannot come into the field lines. I am cornered in by neighbors and my yard sits lower than everyone else's so the majority of the water comes to my yard. There are no near by ditches or things like that for me to drain into. I will be ok with saturated soil by the fence line as long as it does not sit over the field lines and fill my septic. I have thought about perforated drain pipes leading to a large water basin at the back of the yard but I am open to any suggestions.
