Rockin' in the Graveyard

Jackie Morningstar

 

Now, you’ve heard of the Purple People Eater

And they sing of the Witch Doctor, too

I guess these songs have sold a million copies

Well, I’ve got one that’ll sell a million too

 

Well, I was out in the graveyard, about twelve o’clock

Something hit me; it felt like a rock

I thought it was an owl flyin’ around and around

But it’s just an old ghost, diggin’ holes in the ground

 

He said, “Wait a minute, boy, wait a minute

Wait a minute, boy, I say

Wait a minute, boy, wait a minute

Wait a minute before you run away”

 

Now, I’ve seen a lot of strange things

I’ve heard a lot of strange things too

But the strangest thing I ever heard

When he said, “I want you.”

 

 “Wait a minute, boy, wait a minute

Wait a minute, boy, I say

Wait a minute, boy, wait a minute

Wait a minute before you run away”

 

“I say, Wait a minute, boy, wait a minute

Wait a minute, boy, I say

Wait a minute, boy, wait a minute

Wait a minute before you run away”

 

“Wait a minute, boy, wait a minute

Wait a minute, boy, I say” (Fade)
