Homegrown Halloween

[Verse 1] I carved your name in a pumpkin smile Left it by the porch and the screen door while Black cats slip by and the scarecrow crew I’m on the front step, waiting on you Got a bag of candy, pockets full of nerve Moon over the barn, cold air on the curve You can knock once, you can test that fear Baby, come on in if you’re brave out here [Pre-Chorus] The whole town’s dressed up tonight Everybody’s got that spark in their eye You can run, but you might stay When the jack-o’-lanterns start to sway [Chorus] It’s Halloween, baby, Halloween Come roll with me through the haunted scene Boo to the blues, let the good times lean We’re all dressed up in a Halloween dream Halloween, baby, Halloween Kiss me quick like a midnight queen If the night runs wild, let it run mean We’re the homegrown heart of Halloween [Verse 2] Your boots hit the dirt with a tap-tap beat Costume on crooked, still looking sweet A homemade ghost with a red bow tie You said, “Where’d you go?” I said, “Right here, why?” That old scarecrow’s posted by the cornrow line We laugh so hard it feels like church online You and me shining in that harvest glow A little bit of fear and a whole lot of show [Pre-Chorus] The whole town’s dressed up tonight Everybody’s got that spark in their eye You can run, but you might stay When the jack-o’-lanterns start to sway [Chorus] It’s Halloween, baby, Halloween Come roll with me through the haunted scene Boo to the blues, let the good times lean We’re all dressed up in a Halloween dream Halloween, baby, Halloween Kiss me quick like a midnight queen If the night runs wild, let it run mean We’re the homegrown heart of Halloween [Bridge] [Breakdown] Throw one more handful in my lap Let that porch light flicker, let the dogwoods clap If the moon acts strange, we’ll laugh out loud Two country kids in a spooky crowd [Final Chorus] It’s Halloween, baby, Halloween Come roll with me through the haunted scene Boo to the blues, let the good times lean We’re all dressed up in a Halloween dream Halloween, baby, Halloween Kiss me quick like a midnight queen If the night runs wild, let it run mean We’re the homegrown heart of Halloween
