[Verse 1]
The train slides into the station at midnight
Just a couple of shadowy shapes are waitin' there
The conductor beckons a boney finger
Says "all aboard, if you dare"
Ride the ghost train
[Verse 2]
Igor takes your suitcase
And Dracula shows you to your seat
Right between Frankenstein and the Wolf Man
"Here's a couple of my friends I'd like you to meet! Hahahaha!"
[Chorus]
On the ghost train
On the ghost train
Goblins, ghost, and ghouls all ridin' next to you
On the ghost train
[Verse 3]
I was thirsty, so I eased on up to the club car
I thought I'd get a sip of something cool
Three witches were workin' 'round a cauldron
They said "We're stirrin' somеthing special up for you! Hehehе!"
[Chorus]
On the ghost train
On the ghost train
Barrelin' down a midnight track
Never will be coming back
Ghost train
[Verse 4]
When the Grim Reaper stopped to punch my ticket
I said "That's it man, I'm gettin' out of here!"
Everybody laughed, I said "What's so funny about that?"
And they said "The Devil himself is the engineer! Hahahaha!"
[Chorus]
He's driving the ghost train
He's driving the ghost train
You'll never get off the ghost train
"Might as well make yourself comfortable!"
*Shriek*
[Verse 5]
So if you're ever up in the woods at midnight
In the fearsome fog and the drizzling rain
And you hear a whistle split the air
But you know there ain't no tracks up there
Yeah, it's the ghost train
[Chorus]
You're hearing the ghost train
It's the ghost train
The fiends are shoveling coal and the devil's got your soul
On the ghost train
Ridin' the ghost train
You're on the ghost train
Ghost train
[Spoken Outro] [Too Slim doing a impression of Bela Lugosi's Dracula]
"Would you like to visit the observation car?"
"Next stop, Cucamonga. No, you won't be getting off... Hahahaha..."
