Jack-o’-Lantern Song

Upon one wild and windy night——
  Woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo——
We Jacks our lanterns all did light;
  The wind—it surely knew—FOR——

Whistle and whistle—and whist! Now list!
  Woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo——
Whirling and twirling, with turn and twist,
  The wind—it softly blew.

It was the creepiest, scariest night——
  Woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo,
We held our breath, then lost it quite;
  The wind—it surely knew—FOR——

Whistle and whistle—and whist! Now list!
  Woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo——
Whirling and twirling, with turn and twist,
  The wind—it loudly blew.

It rose in all its main and might
  Woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo——
It blew out every single light;
  The Wind—it surely knew—FOR——

Whistle and whistle—and whist! Now list!
  Woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo——
Whirling and twirling, with turn and twist,
  That wind—it laughed—Ho-oh!
