Lookin Out My Back Door Lyrics

CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL
Lookin' out My Back Door
(J. C. Fogerty)

   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'

Chorus
      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

Chorus

   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

Chorus

   Tambourines and elephants 
   Are playing in the band
   Won't you take a ride 
   On the flyin' spoon ?
   Wond'rous apparition 
   Provided by magician

Chorus

   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

Chorus
