Lyrics
Who’s there? Who’s there?
Up there on the stair, beware, beware
I hear somebody comin’
Up on his toes, oh look, there he goes
Why, Mister Ghost is goin’ to town
He takes his cane, his gloves and his hat
And like a cat, he hurries down the alley
The moon is bright and this is the night
When Mister Ghost is goin’ to town
Oooh Ooh ooh Ooh ooh Ooh ooh
He’s feelin’ great and he can’t be late
He’s got a date to do a little steppin’
He’ll shake his bones to hot saxophones
‘Cause Mister Ghost is goin’ to town
