Halloween: Down by the bay...


Down by the bay.
Where the pumpkins grow.
Back to my home
I dare not go.
For if I do
My mummy will say,
Did you ever see a ghost eating some toast?
Down by the bay.

Down by the bay.
Where the pumpkins grow.
Back to my home
I dare not go.
For if I do
My mummy will say,
Did you ever see a bat dancing with a rat?
Down by the bay.

Down by the bay.
Where the pumpkins grow.
Back to my home
I dare not go.
For if I do
My mummy will say,
Did you ever see a vampire making a campfire?
Down by the bay.

Down by the bay.
Where the pumpkins grow.
Back to my home
I dare not go.
For if I do
My mummy will say,
Did you ever see a witch scratching an itch?
Down by the bay.

Down by the bay.
Where the pumpkins grow.
Back to my home
I dare not go.
For if I do
My mummy will say,
Did you ever see a troll digging a hole?
Down by the bay.

Down by the bay.
Where the pumpkins grow.
Back to my home
I dare not go.
For if I do
My mummy will say,
Did you ever see a spider flying in a glider?
Down by the bay.
Down by the bay.
