Lyrics

I'm not easily scared
By things that go bump in the night
There's not many things
That give me a fright
I can walk down a lonely block
And not a lot can make my old knees knock

But, there's one thing that scares me the most
Is when I think I see a ghost and
I thought I saw you last night
I thought I saw you last night

I've been lately thinking
About a ouija board
And maybe contacting
Your soul ceded by the lord
'Cause all the shadows on my street
That bring with sounds of shuffling feet

But, there's one thing that scares me the most
Is when I think I see a ghost and
I thought I saw you last night
I thought I saw you last night

Throw salt on my shoulder and knock on wood
Don't step on cracks, but it does no good
I drink a bourbon to calm my nerves
Read an old book and chant some verse
Hold hot coals in the middle of my fist
Take advice from my exorcist
Hallelujah
Hail mary
Holy moley
This is scary

For instance, last night
I went to a scary movie
And I tried real hard
Not to let it get to me
But, I just kept looking over my shoulder
The wind got hands and I got colder

But, there's one thing that scares me the most
Is when I think I see a ghost and
I thought I saw you last night
I thought I saw you last night

I'm not easily scared
By things that go bump in the night
