[Words and Music by Jack Fulton and Lois Steele]
Wanted, someone who kissed me
And held me closely, then stole my heart
Wanted, someone I trusted
Who gave no warning we'd ever part
She was last seen hiding out in someone's arms
He knew nothing of the danger in her charms
A jury may find her guilty
But I'd forgive her if I could see
A signed confession that she's repented
And really wanted no one but me
---- musical Interlude ----

But I'd forgive her if I could see
A signed confession that she's repented

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
---- Instrumental Interlude ----
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
