THE BOOGEYMAN SONG
by
HENRY HALL
1898-1989

BOOGEYMAN SONG written and performed by Henry Hall


Say Hush, Hush
He'll think that you're asleep.
If you make a lovely snore
away he'll softly creep.

Sing this tune
You children one and all
BOOGEYMAN will run away,
he'll think it's Henry Hall!

When the shadows
creep across the sky
And your Mommy comes upstairs
to sing a lullaby

Tell her that the BOOGEYMAN
no longer frightens you.
Uncle Henry very kindly
told you what to do.

Hush, hush, hush
Here comes the BOOGEYMAN.
Don't let him come too close to you,
he'll catch you if he can!

Just pretend your Teddy Bear's a Dog
Then shout out, "FETCH HIM TEDDY!"
He'll hop off like a Frog.

Say Meow, pretend that you're a Cat!
He'll think that you may scratch
and that will make him fall down flat.

Just pretend he isn't really there.
You'll find the BOOGEYMAN vanish in thin air.

Here's one way
To catch him without fail.

Just keep a little salt with you,
and put it on his tail.
