Just go 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 wearing high heels.
   Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
  
   a Dinosaur Victrola
   list'nin' 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 flying spoon.
   Doo doo doo doo wondrous 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 flying spoon.
   Doo doo doo doo bother me tomorrow
   today I'll buy no sorrows.
   doo doo doo lookin' out my back door.
  
   All my trouble is 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.
