This song is available on Hap Palmer's "Holiday Songs & Rhythms."
This song is done in “rock” style with a typical
rock horn section of tenor sax, baritone sax and trumpet.
It lends itself to rock dance and rhythm styles.
In the first verse you will hear the phrase “Yummy
snacks we collect in a sack by the pale moonlight.” If
you are working with younger children and want to
encourage them not to stay too late, you can emphasize
that the moonlight is pale because it is not yet dark.
Trick or Treat - Time to eat
Yummy snacks we collect in a sack by the pale moonlight
Oh, the sun is gone and the stars are here
Ghosts and goblins are nothing to fear
Happiness is gettin’ dressed
To have a good time on Halloween night
Oh have a good time, have a good time
Be nice to your neighbors
Don’t make them uptight
Ring bell and wish them well
And have a good time on Halloween night
You can be what you want to be
If a ghost is what you like most, well that’s all right
Or a clown or a king, a gypsy with rings
A ragged old tramp or a bird that sings
Pumpkin, skeleton, prince or pirate
Have a good time on Halloween night.
Oh have a good time, have a good time
Be nice to your neighbors
Don’t make them uptight
Ring the bell and wish them well
And have a good time on Halloween night
