A Couple of Halloween Songs

Halloween Drawing by Lila

Heather sent me these Halloween songs and the following note:

Hi,

When I was little my Mom taught my sisters and me several Halloween songs. You have one on your website called “Five Little Pumpkins” and “Trick or Treat” that we know. Here is some others I thought you might like to add:

The Halloween Song

H, A, double L, O
W, double E, N
Spells Halloween

Jack-o’-lantern

Jack-o’-lantern, Jack-o’-lantern
You are such a funny sight.
As you sit there, at the window
Glowing on at the night.

You were once a yellow pumpkin
Growing on a sturdy vine.
Now you are a jack-o’-lantern
Glowing on at the night.

I am not sure what the titles are, but I have been searching for these songs on the internet and can’t find either of them. But I sing them to my daughter all the time. We are especially fond of Halloween and we like your website.

Thanks!

Heather

The second song sounds like it’s to the tune of Frère Jacques.

Thanks for sharing those wonderful Halloween songs with us Heather! If anyone else would like to post a song for the holiday, feel free to add it in the comments below.

Happy Halloween!
