Thread Name: Halloween Songs [2]
Subject: RE: Halloween Songs
I've sung this tune to my kids for years remembering it from elementary school, but have been trying to get all the words of the second verse. This is what I remember:

Hallowee-ee-en, the witch is riding high.
Have you see-ee-een her shadow in the sky?
So beware don't you dare to even boast or a ghost
To your dismay will hear you say
That you don't care, say a prayer
Or it may come and pull your hair.

There's a big, black cat a crossing in our way.
Now you've heard of that, bad luck they always say.
Weren't you scared when it stared with eyes aglow
[???????????????]
Let's hurry home or a gnome
Will thump a lump upon your dome.


There is a line or two missing in the second verse that I've been trying to get for years. Anyone remember?
