Walt Disney Records - The Headless Horseman lyrics

[Brom:] When the spooks have a midnight jamboree They break it up with fiendish glee Ghosts are bad, but the one that's cursed Is the Headless Horseman, he's the worst [Chorus:] That's right, he's a fright On Halloween night When he goes a-joggin' 'cross the land Holdin' his noggin in his hand Demons take one look and groan And hit the road for parts unknown [Chorus:] Beware, take care, he rides alone [Brom and Chorus:] And there's no spook like a spook who's spurned They don't like him, and he's really burned He swears to the longest day he's dead He'll show them that he can get a head [Brom:] They say he's tired of his flamin' top He's got a yen to make a swap So he rides one night each year To find a head in the hollow here [Chorus:] Now he likes them little, he likes them big Part in the middle, or a wig Black or white or even red [Brom:] The Headless Horseman needs a head [Brom and Chorus:] With a hip-hip and a clippity-clop He's out lookin' for a top to chop So don't stop to figure out a plan You can't reason with a headless man [Brom:] Now if you doubt this tale is so I met that spook just a year ago Now I didn't stop for a second look But made for the bridge that spans the brook For once you cross that bridge, my friends [Chorus:] The ghost is through, his power ends [Brom:] So when you're riding home tonight Make for the bridge with all your might He'll be down in the hollow there He needs your head, look out, beware [Chorus:] With a hip-hip and a clippity-clop He's out looking for a head to swap So don't try to figure out a plan You can't reason with a headless man
