lyrics

SCARECROW WALKING

Scarecrow leanin’ in the corn
Took himself a walk one night
A pumpkin smilin’ on his shoulder
A demon's candle burnin’ bright.

Oh lord I’m ‘fraid of that scarecrow
Oh lord I’m scared of him
Oh lord I’m ‘fraid of that scarecrow
When the sun is growin' dim.

Scarecrow howlin’ in the field
Momma, don’t blow out my light
Close my eyes, won’t look out the window
Somethin’ waits in the autumn night.

Daddy’s coat and Uncle’s britches
An old owl’s nest and a bale of straw
Floppy hat, rope suspenders
A pumpkin’s face and a devil’s claw.
