Lyrics John Fogerty

John Fogerty

Lookin' Out My Back Door

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.
