Lyrics
Every evening when the sun goes down
Old mother goose is around
Flies thro’ the air upon her broom
Now don’t you make a sound
With a great big pack upon her back
She’ll put you all inside
Then she’ll mount her broom
And fly to the moon
On a ghostly spooky ride
CHORUS
To Boogy land, to boogy land
The boogy man lives there
No one to save, in a large cave
He will roast you in his lair
In Boogy land, in boogy land
With goblins all around
When you hear him come, you’d better run
But don’t you make a sound
