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 singing, 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, listening 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 ? 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 ? 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.
