DmDemons take one look and AMgroan
And E7hit the road for parts unknAmown
[Chorus 1]                    
And there's Cno spook, like a spook who's spurned
They don't like him, and he's reF7ally buG7rned
He sweDmars to the longest day he's Cdead
He'Amll show them that he can E7get a hAmead

They Amsay he's tE7ired of Amhis flE7amin' top
AmHe's got a yen to mDmake a sE7wap
DmSo he rides one night eacAMh year
To fE7ind a head in the hollow Amhere

Now Amhe likes them littlE7e, he liAmkes them E7big
AmParted in the miDmddle, or with E7a a wig
DmBlack or white or even reAMd
The E7Headless Horseman needs a Amhead
[Chorus 2]
With a hey-Chey and a clippity-clop
