John Fogerty - Haunted House lyrics
[John Fogerty - Haunted House lyrics]
Moving was hard but I got squared away
When bells starting ring and
Chains rattled loud
I knew I'd moved in a haunted house
Still I made up my mind to stay
Nothing was a-gonna drive me away
When I seen something that give me the creeps
Had one big eye and two big feet
I stood right still and I did the freeze
It did the stroll right up to me
Made a noise with it's feet
That sounded like a drum
Said: 'You gonna be here
When the morning comes?'
Say 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 haint's gonna run me off'
In my kitchen my stove was a-blazing hot
Coffee was a-boiling in the pot
Grease had melted in my pan
I had a hunk of meat 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 the hot coffee right from the spout
He ate the raw meat right from my hand
Drank the hot grease from the frying pan
And said to me: 'Well, you better run'
'And don't be here when the morning comes'
Say 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 haint's gonna run me off'
Oh!
