(1)Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
(2)There's a giant doing cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels

Eb Bb F
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch.
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn

Bb Gm
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singin',
A dinosaur Victrola list'ning to Buck Owens.

Eb Bb F Bb
Doo, doo, doo, Lookin' out my back door.

Wond'rous apparition provided by magician.

Doo, doo, doo, Lookin' out my back door.
