Old Jacks Grin
Carvin jack-o-lanterns
In the kitchen with my brother
Slimy seeds and pumpkin eyes
Lyin in slick pans
Hey! Watch out! That knife is sharp!
And clean up! Says my mother
I scrape out stringy goblin guts
With spoon and my bare hands
Old Jacks toothy grin
Glowin in the night_________________Chorus
Bed sheet ghosts and small, shy witches
Giggle at the sight
Old Jacks flame-lit fangs
Welcome monsters in_______________Chorus
My favorite part of Halloween
Is Old Jacks toothy grin
Dryin seeds on cookie sheets
We salt em and we eat em
Candy waitin by the door
They trick or treat, we feed em
Ghouls, werewolves, vampires, bats
With bags of goodies bulgin
Hurrin from house to house
Gleefully indulgin
Instr.Brk
Dunk for apples in a tub
Or bite em on a string
Old Jacks grinnin by the door
At Halloween hes king
Old Jacks toothy grin
Glowin in the night_________________Chorus
Bed sheet ghosts and small, shy witches
Giggle at the sight
Old Jacks flame-lit fangs
Welcome monsters in_______________Chorus
My favorite part of Halloween
Is Old Jacks toothy grin
My favorite part of Halloween
Is Old Jacks toothy grin
