lyrics

It only comes one time of year
Upon the night so many fear
Rapscallions and screams you hear
Out your window
When the wind blows all around
And all the lights go out in town
You can hear that 'ding-dong' sound
Along with a “Trick or treat!”

Halloween is the spookiest time of year
The ghouls and ghosts will follow
Until the frost settles on the ground
And as the jack-o-lantern burns
The kids will all take turns
Ringing doorbells for what they yearn
To throw in their burlap sacks

The leaves crackle on the street
As they fall right under your feet
The wind will blow so pull that coat
Around as tight as it will go
So keep a candle at steady glow
While you walk through the house real slow
And as the candle it burns so low
Before your heart stops

Halloween in New England is the spookiest place to be
The ghouls and ghosts will follow
Until the frost settles on the ground
And as the jack-o-lantern burns
The kids will all take turns
Ringing doorbells for what they yearn
I'm talking about candy

Skeletons and Frankenstein just to name a few
The witch and wolf are out there lurking too
Vampires and mummies are also creatures who aren't just myths...
Beware!

Halloween is the spookiest time of year
The ghouls and ghosts will follow
Until the frost settles on the ground
Halloween in New England is the spookiest place to be
The ghouls and ghosts will follow
Until their cursed bones are found
And as the jack-o-lantern burns
The kids will all take turns
Ringing doorbells for what they yearn
I'm talking about candy...
