Haunted House

I just moved in my new house today

And moving was hot but I got squared away

When bells started ringin' and chains rattled loud

I knew I'd moved in a haunted house

Still, I made up my mind to stay

Nothin' wasn't gonna drive me away

When I seen something that gave me the creep

Had one big eye and two big feet

I stood right still and I did the freeze

A thing came strolling up to me

Made a noise with the feet, sounded like a drum

Say: "Don't be here when the morning comes"

Said: "Yes, I'll be here when the morning comes

I'll be right here and I ain't gonna run

I bought this house and you know I'm boss

Ain't no hate gonna run me off"

Whoa!

C'mon in Mr. Lee

In the kitchen my stove was a blazin' hot

Coffee was a boilin' in the pot

The grease had melted in my pan

I had a hunk o' meat right in my hand

From out of space, there sat a man

On the hot stove with the pots and pans

"Say that's hot!" I began to shout

He drank a hot coffee right from the spout

He ate the raw meat right from my hand

Drank the hot grease from the frying pan

He said to me: "Well you better run

And don't be here when the morning comes"

Said: "Yes, I'll be here when the morning comes

I'll be right here and I ain't gonna run

I bought this house and you know I'm boss

Ain't no hate gonna run me off"

Whoa!

Lord, have mercy!
