The Spooky Walk Song

[TickleMonster]

My 4 year old dd is learning this at her headstart and came home singing some of it. I decided to look it up and it is really cute so I will be teaching it to my dcks. I know some of you have probably heard it but I never had so I wanted to share it with everyone on here. You can find it on youtube and play the soundtrack that has lyrics and silly halloween sounds to go with it. There is fun hand motions and the parts that are in () are where the kids repeat the lines that you say. Have fun!



Spooky Walk Lyrics
Lyrics and Music: John Given

Chorus We're gonna take a walk
To a place that's dark and spooky.
(We're gonna take a walk
To a place that's dark and spooky.)
This could be kind of fun
And creepy and kooky.
(This could be kind of fun
And creepy and kooky.)

I look out up ahead,
But my eyes can barely see...
(I look out up ahead,
But my eyes can barely see...)


Verse 1: We'll soon be in tall grass.
Stay together. Follow me.
Whoa! Did you hear that?
A black cat and a scary bat!
(Repeat chorus)
Verse 2: We'll soon be in a river.
Stay together. Swim with me.
Whoa! Did you see that?
A witch is on her broom, flying by the moon!
(Repeat chorus)
Verse 3: We'll soon be in that cave.
Stay together. Follow me.
Slow now. Shhh!
Sure is dark in here.

Feel the left side.
It's cold and slimy.

Feel the right side.
It's cold and slimy too.

Whoa! Did you hear that?
Rattling bones and ghostly moans.


Conclusion: Let's get out of here!
Out of the cave!
Swim back through the river ...
Back through the tall grass...

Into the room—
Close the door.

Whoa! That was scary!

This is just like, "we're going on a bear hunt" can't remember the author, but my kids love that book. I will try to make a picture book out of this- thanks for the idea!

I had to look this up on YouTube because I couldn't hear it in my head... it's so cute! I think we'll be singing this song here, too.

You are welcome! Did a video of my dcks doing it today for their parents. It is really cute. Another song is The Skeleton Dance. Its a newer version of Them Bones. Kids liked it. Thanks for finding the youtube link.

My dck's LOVE that book and the Halloween version- We're going on a ghost hunt.

We do 'them bones' song a few poems- My friend Jack, 5 little pumpkins, leaves are falling.

This is super cute! I might limit it to just the chorus or one verse though. My current crew have NO attention span.
