Lyrics Spooks - Louis Armstrong feat. Gordon Jenkins & His Orchestra

The other night about twelve o'clock
I thought I'd go downstairs just to check the lock
When I heard something in the house
I don't mean a mouse
I swear they were spooks spooks spooks
I know they were spooks spooks spooks spooks
I couldn't move just stood and stared I never was so scared
The first spook spoke and I heard him speak
He said what's say we make the back door squeak
We will tease the cat and hound the pup and raise our spirits up
Oh lordy them spooks spooks spooks
Those scary old spooks spooks spooks spooks
You don't have to take my word but I heard what I heard
The next spook spoke he said suppose we make
The faucets start to drip and make the shutters shake
You let me know just what you want
This is my favorite haunt
Beware of them spooks spooks spooks
Then mischievous spooks spooks spooks spooks
I hate spoofing man I mean but I've seen what I seen
A big spook spoke he said Spike my son he
said I'll show you how to scare up some fun
But next time when you when you wake
now see hear you make it the loud and clear
Watch out for them spooks spooks spooks
Those nasty old spooks spooks spooks spooks
Maybe you don't think it's so but I know what I know
The last spook turned to his spouse and frowned
he said I thought I told you to wait in the ground
But you look awful cute tonight in fact you look a fright
He's talking 'bout spooks spooks spooks
Real genuine spooks spooks spooks spooks
No use to putting up your dukes you just can't fight them spooks
I'm cutting out of here man I dont dig this jive no
Wait for us, wait for us, wait for us, wait for us
