                               A
I just moved in my new house today
                                   D
Moving was hard but I got squared away
                                        E
Bells starting rings and chains rattled loud
                              A
I knew I'd moved in a haunted house


Still I made up my mind to stay
And Nothing was a-gonna drive me away
Till I seen something that give me the creeps
It had one big eye and two big feet

I stood right there and I did the freeze
And it did stroll right up to me
Made a noise with its feet that sounded like a drum
Said "Don't you be here when the morning comes?"

"Say yes I'll be here when the morning comes
I'll be right here, I ain't gonna run
Said I bought this house, now I am boss
Ain't no haney gonna run me off"

In the kitchen my stove was a blazing hot
The coffee was boiling in the pot
All the grease had melted in my pan
I had a hunk of meat in my hand

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
Then he drank all thee hot grease from the frying pan
And said to me "You better run
And don't you be here when the morning comes"

"Say yes I'll be here when the morning comes
I'll be right here, I ain't gonna run
Said I bought this house, now I am boss
Ain't no haint like you gonna run me off"
