Eric Church

Songwriter: John Fogerty

Yeah I ust got home from Illinois, I lock the front door, oh boy
Got to sit down yeah out 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's wearin' high heels
Look at all the happy creatures dancin' on the lawn
A dinosaur Victrola listenin' 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
Wondrous apparition provided by a magician

Doo doo doo lookin' out my back door

Yeah 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, yeah lock the front door oh boy
And look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
Bother me tomorrow yeah and I'll buy no sorrows

Doo doo doo lookin' out my back door

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
