Pumpkin Patch after Dark

V6

(Verse 1) Grab the lantern, lace the boots, we steppin’ in the patch Hear the werewolves howlin’ loud, yeah, they match the scratch Wagon rattlin’ down the lane, fog is rollin’ thick Ghostly whispers on the wind, they try to pull a trick You pointin’ at a monster, tuggin’ on my sleeve “That thing moved!” I seen it too, no reason to leave Crooked smile and glowing eyes, pumpkins under light Midnight sky is wide awake, we out here lookin’ right (Hook) Halloween adventure, me and you outside Under that haunted October sky Kickin’ through the vines and the misty ground Huntin’ for the strangest one around Might be lopsided, might wear a frown Scariest pumpkin in this whole town Carved-up grin and a wicked glow Light it up and watch it go (Verse 2) You trip on a root and I start to yell Something chasin’ through the steam, I can smell the smell Scarecrow laughin’ by the gate, skeletons in the maze We pushin’ deeper in the dark, we tempting fate these days Leaves are crackin’ underfoot, shadows start to shift Hear a rustle in the corn, we pickin’ up the drift Then you lift a green one up, small and lookin’ weird Looks like a goblin with a scraggly beard It wiggles once, then it starts to grin Eyes light up and the teeth kick in I think we just let the goblin in Now it’s smilin’ like it knows the win (Hook) Halloween adventure, me and you outside Under that haunted October sky Kickin’ through the vines and the misty ground Huntin’ for the strangest one around Might be lopsided, might wear a frown Scariest pumpkin in this whole town Carved-up grin and a wicked glow Light it up and watch it go (Bridge) Moon climb high, turn the clouds to green Two strange pumpkins and a ghost between Heave ’em in the wagon, dirt all on our sleeves Black cats dartin’ through the dead oak leaves Somethin’ laughin’ deep inside the trees Cold wind whisper, “Don’t you leave…” You grab my hand while the shadows creep We found the pumpkin — now it won’t let us sleep (Final Hook) Halloween adventure, me and you outside Under that blood-red autumn sky Through the vines and the foggy ground We found the creepiest one around Yeah, it’s lopsided, yeah, it’s round Spookiest pumpkin in this whole town Wicked grin and a fiery glow It’s alive tonight — let’s go, go, go! (Outro) Squeaky wagon rollin’ through the dark Jack-o’-lanterns throwin’ sparks Mud on the shoes, chill in the air Somethin’ ridin’ with us… but nobody’s there We got the pumpkin, what a fright Happy Halloween… and goodnight.
