I just moved in my new house today Moving was hot but I got squared away Bells started ringing and chains rattled loud I knew I'd moved in a haunted house Still I made up in my mind to stay Nothing was a gonna drive me away When I seen something that gave me the creep Had a one big eye and two big feet I stood right still and I did the freeze And he did the stroll right up to me Made a sound with his feet like a drum Saying, you'll be here when the morning comes Say, yes, I'll be here when the morning comes I'll be right here and I ain't gonna run I bought this house, now you know I'm boss Ain't no haunt gonna run me off In the kitchen, my stove was a blazing hot The coffee was a boiling in the pot The grease had melted in my pan I had a hunk of meet in my hand From out of space, there sat a man On a hot stove was pots and pans Say, that's hot, I began to shout He drank a hot coffee from the spout He ate the raw meat right from my hand Drank the hot grease from the frying pan He said to me, Now you better run And don't be here when the morning comes Say, yes, I'll be here when the morning comes I'll be right here and I ain't gonna run I bought this house, now you know I'm boss
