Lyrics
Just got home from Illinois
Lock the front door, oh, boy!
Got to sit down
Take a rest on the porch
Imagination sets in
Pretty soon I'm singin'
Doo, doo, doo
Lookin' out my back door
There's a giant doin' cartwheels
A statue wearin' high heels
Look at all the happy creatures
Dancin' on the lawn
Dinosaur Victrola
List'nin' to Buck Owens
Doo, doo, doo
Lookin' out my back door
Tambourines and elephants
Are playin' in the band
Won't you take a ride
On the flyin' spoon?
Dood, 'n', doo, doo
Wond'rous apparition
Provided by magician
Doo, doo, doo
Lookin' out my back door
Tambourines and elephants
Are playin' in the band
Won't you take a ride
On the flyin' spoon?
Dood, 'n', doo, doo
Bother me tomorrow
Today I'll buy no sorrows
Doo, doo, doo
Lookin' out my back door
Forward troubles Illinois
Lock the front door, oh, boy!
Look at all the happy creatures
Dancin' on the lawn
Bother me tomorrow
Today I'll buy no sorrow
Doo, doo, doo
Lookin' out my back door
