Halloween Songs

Three Black Cats

Three black cats—Three black cats
In black hats—in black hats
They all jumped into the Halloween stew
To tease the ghosts and goblins, too.
Have you ever seen such a hullaballew
As three black cats? Three black cats?

Thirteen Nights of Halloween

On the thirteenth night of Halloween, my goblin gave to me:
Thirteen ghosts a booing, Twelve vampires nibbling,
Eleven cats a-hissing, Ten skeletons rattling
Nine bats a flying, Eight werewolves howling,
Seven creeping lizards, Six spiders spinning
Five pounds of worms
Four cackling witches, Three jack-o-lanterns,
Two hairy toads, and a spooky owl in a tree.

Five Little Pumpkins

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate
The first one said, “Oh my, it’s getting late!”
The second one said, “There are witches in the air!”
The third one said, “But we don’t care!”
The fourth one said, “Let’s run and run and run!”
The fifth one said, “Let’s have some fun!”
Then “oooooh” went the wind and out went the lights
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight.
