John Fogerty performs "Lookin' Out My Back Door"

"Lookin' Out My Back Door" is a song recorded by the American band Creedence Clearwater Revival, also known as CCR. The song was written by the band's lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter, John Fogerty. The song is included on their 1970 album Cosmo's Factory, the group's fifth album, which was also their fifth and final number-two Billboard hit.

"Lookin' Out My Back Door" was a direct tribute to the Bakersfield Sound, a form of music that influenced Fogerty and the CCR sound. Buck Owens, one of the architects of the Bakersfield Sound, is even mentioned in the song's lyrics.

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Lookin' Out My Back Door Lyrics

 

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

Giant doin' cartwheels, statue wearin' high heels

Look at all the happy creatures dancin' on the lawn

Dinosaur Victrola list'nin' to Buck Owens

Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door

Tambourines and elephants are playin' 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 playin' in the band

Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Doo, doo, doo

Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrow

Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door

Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!

Look at all the happy creatures dancin' on the lawn

Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrow

Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door
