• Peanut’s Pumpkin Carols
Peanut’s Pumpkin Carols
Our Adult Sunday School Class sponsored a Great Pumpkin Party this month. One of the things we did there was to sing some of the old Peanut’s Pumpkin Carols from the book: The Peanuts Book of Pumpkin Carols (you can buy it from Amazon. com). The words are all sung to familiar Christmas Carols. Can you figure them out?
I am posting some of them for my followers to use!
DECK THE PATCH
Deck the patch with orange and black,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Take along your goody sack,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Troll the ancient Pumpkin carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
See the Great One rise before us,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
As we sing the Pumpkin chorus,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Follow him as he ascends,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Join with true Great Pumpkin friends,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
GREAT PUMPKIN IS COMING TO TOWN
Oh, you better not shriek,
You better not groan,
You better not howl,
You better not moan,
Great Pumpkin is comin’ to town!
He’s going to find out,
From folks that he meets,
Who deserves tricks,
And who deserves treats,
Great Pumpkin is comin’ to town!
He’ll search in every pumpkin patch,
Haunted houses far and near,
To see if you’ve been spreading gloom,
Or bringing lots of cheer.
So, you better not shriek,
You better not groan,
You better not howl,
You better not moan,
Great Pumpkin is comin’ to town!
I HEARD THE BELLS ON HALLOWEEN
I heard the bells on Halloween,
Their old, familiar carols scream,
And wild and sweet the words repeat,
The Pumpkin season’s here again.
Then pealed the bells more loud and strong,
Great Pumpkin comes before too long,
The good will get – the bad will fret.
The Pumpkin season’s here again!
I’M DREAMING OF THE GREAT PUMPKIN
I’m dreaming of the Great Pumpkin,
Just like I do this time each year.
When he brings nice toys,
To good girls and boys,
Who wait for him to appear.
I’m dreaming of the Great Pumpkin,
With every Pumpkin card I write.
May your jack-o-lanterns burn bright,
When the Great Pumpkin visits you tonight.
O PUMPKIN CARDS
O Pumpkin cards! O Pumpkin cards!
Carry greetings to my friends.
O Pumpkin cards! O Pumpkin cards!
Carry greetings to my friends.
And let them know the day is here.
When the Great Pumpkin will appear.
O Pumpkin cards! O Pumpkin cards!
Carry greetings to my friends.
PUMPKIN BELLS
Dashing through the streets,
In our costumes bright and gay,
To each house we go,
Laughing all the way.
Halloween is here,
Making spirits bright,
What fun it is to trick-or-treat,
And sing Pumpkin carols tonight!
Oh, Pumpkin bells! Pumpkin bells!
Ringing loud and clear,
Oh what fun Great Pumpkin brings,
When Halloween is here!
Pumpkin bells! Pumpkin bells!
Ringing loud and clear,
Oh what fun Great Pumpkin brings,
When Halloween is here!
THE 12 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN
On the twelfth day of Halloween my true love gave to me,
twelve bats-a-flying,
eleven masks-a-leering,
ten ghouls-a-groaning,
nine ghosts-a-booing,
eight monsters shrieking,
seven pumpkins glowing,
six goblins gobbling,
five scary spooks,
four skeletons,
three black cats,
two trick-or-treaters,
And an owl in an old, dead tree.
