just got off from work
it was awful late
i had to pass the cemetery gate
the skywasdark
and the moonwas bright
it was a very verycold cold night
i never thought i could see such a sight
a poor soul doing the dead man’s stroll
dressed in a top hat cane and all
must have been going to a dead man’s ball
may not believe it but it has to be told
a poor soul doing the dead man’s stroll
nodded his head
with a finger he led
i wasn’t sure there was nothing to dread
we went on for miles and miles
just before i realized
the time had passed when i was cold
i was now doing
the dead man’s stroll
