Tune: This Old Man
This old ghost, he played one,
He played peek-a-boo on the run.
With a Boo! Boo! Boo!
and a clap, clap, clap!
This old ghost is a friendly chap.
This old ghost, he played two,
He played peek-a-boo in a shoe.
With a Boo! Boo! Boo!
and a clap, clap, clap!
This old ghost is a friendly chap.
This old ghost, he played three,
He played peek-a-boo behind a tree.
With a Boo! Boo! Boo!
and a clap, clap, clap,
This old ghost is a friendly chap.
It’s October
http://www.alphabet-soup.net/hall/hallcarol.html
Tune: She’ll Be Coming ‘round the Mountain
It’s October and it’s time to have some fun,
It’s October and it’s time to have some fun!
Pickin’ apples up so high
For a fresh baked apple pie
It’s October and it’s time to have some fun,
Oh it’s time to head out to the pumpkin patch,
Oh it’s time to head out to the pumpkin patch,
To the patch to choose a pumpkin
Dressed up like a country bumpkin
Oh it’s time to head out to the pumpkin patch,
Oh we’ll all go trick or treatin’ Halloween,
Oh we’ll all go trick or treatin’ Halloween,
Saying “Boo!” to those we meet
Getting lots of things to eat
Oh we’ll all go trick or treatin’ Halloween!
Stirring the Brew

Tip toe, tip toe,

Boo!

Have a Happy Halloween

Tune: Clementine
Have a happy, have a happy, have a happy Halloween.
Trick of treat some, then you’ll eat some,
Have a happy Halloween.
Counting cookies, counting candy, counting every jellybean,
Have a happy, have a happy, have a happy Halloween.
Ring the front door, ring the back door,
ride a broomstick in between,
Have a happy, have a happy, have a happy Halloween.

Tune: Do Your Ears Hang Low
Oh, the city is great and the city is grand
There are lots of tall buildings
On a little piece of land

And this is what we do
When we go out the door!
Take the elevator up, take the elevator down (3 x)
Then we turn around!
