"HAUNTED HOUSE"

I just moved in my new house today
and moving was hard
 but I got squared away
Bells started ringing
 and chains rattled loud,
I knew I had moved in a haunted house.
Still I made up my mind to stay
and nothing was going to drive me away
when I saw something
 that gave me the creeps,
had one big eye and-a two big feet.
I stood right still
 and I did the freeze,
he did the stroll right up to me,
made noise with his feet
 that sounded like a drum,
he said, "You gonna be
 here when mornin' comes?"
I said, "Yes, I'll be
 here when mornin' comes.
I'm gonna stay here,
 ain't gonna run.
I bought this house,
 now you know I am boss,
ain't no haunt gonna run me off."
In the kitchen my stove
 was a-blazin' hot,
the coffee was boiling in the pot,
the grease had melted in my pan,
I had a hunk of meat in my hand.
From outer space there sat a man
on my hot stove with
 my pot in his hand.
"Hey that's hot," I began to shout,
he drank the hot coffee
 right from the spout.
He ate the raw meat
 right from my hand
drank the hot grease
 from the frying pan,
said to me, "You'd better run
and don't be here -
 when the mornin' comes!"
