The Boogeyman

Colorado Sandstorm Music, B.M.I.

1.	Grandma warned me when I went
	To stay with her a time
	That I best be to my manners
	Lest I soon would find
	Someone sneaking past my window
	From the green elm stand
	Someone dark and dusty, dirty,
	Called The Boogeyman

2.	On his shoulder, brown and lumpy
	Gritty gunny sack
	Into which he stuffed bad children
	Carried on his back
	Questioned not I Grandma's warning
	Knowing no child can
	Hide in safety under covers
.	From The Boogeyman

3.	Late at night as I lay sleeping
	From the shadows near
	I would often hear him creeping
	Causing me such fear
	Through my window, down the alley
	Sometimes I'd pretend
	I could see him in the elm stand
	Big bad Boogeyman

"Patrick, an author, loves scary stories. His books and short stories were published nationally. He wrote some delightful Halloween-style children's poems and asked me to turn them into songs. I heard music in the words, and Peter helped me make them come to life."
