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 doing cartwheels
A statue wearin’ high heels.
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
A dinosaur Victrola
List’ning to Buck Owens.
Doo, doo, doo, lookin’ out my back door.
Tambourines and elephants
Are playing in the band.
Won’t you take a ride on the flyin’ spoon?
Doo, doo doo.
Wond’rous apparition
Provided by magician.
Doo, doo, doo, lookin’ out my back door.
Tambourines and elephants
Are playing in the band.
Won’t you take a ride on the flyin’ spoon?
Doo, 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 dancing on the lawn.
Bother me tomorrow
Today, I’ll buy no sorrows.
Doo, doo, doo, lookin’ out my back door.
