lyrics

It was a dark stormy night
And the rain beat on the tin roof
It was a dark stormy night
And the rain beat on the tin roof
We were telling scary stories
And the haint was on the loose

It was cold outside
We moved closer to the fire
The wind was howling outside
We moved closer to the fire
And I heard somebody whisper
Gonna be a real scary night

There was one about The Monkey’s Paw
And Rawhead-and-Bloody-Bones
Then someone had the nerve to tell
About the old hag in the swamp
Oh a dark stormy night
And the rain beat on the tin roof
We were telling scary stories
And the haint was on the loose

There came a scratching at the door
And a tapping on the window pane
A scratching on the door
And a tapping on the window pane
And I heard somebody whisper
Please don’t tell that one again
