one windy afternoon the little old lady
left her cottage
and went for a walk in the forest to
collect herbs and spices
nuts and seeds
she walked so long and so
far that it started to get dark
[Music]
there was only a sliver of moon
shining through the night
the little old lady started to walk home
suddenly she stopped right
in the middle of the path were two
big shoes and the shoes
went clump clump
get out of my way you two big shoes i'm
not afraid of you
said the little old lady on she walked
down the path
but behind her she could hear two
shoes go clump clump
a little farther on the little old lady
stumbled into a pair of
pants and the pants went
wiggle wiggle
[Music]
get out of my way you parapens i'm not
afraid of you
said the little old lady and she walked
on
but behind her she could hear
two shoes go clop club
and one pair of pants go wiggle wiggle
farther still the little old lady
bumped into a shirt and the shirt went
shake shake

walked
a little bit faster but behind
her she could hear two shoes

black hat and the gloves

by now the little old lady was walking
at quite a fast pace
she was very near her cottage when she
was startled
by a very huge

stop to talk

boom the little old lady did not look
back
she ran as fast as she could and didn't
stop to catch her breath
until she was safe inside her cottage
with the door locked
she sat in her chair by the fire and she
rocked and she rocked
it was so quiet in her
cottage before the knock knock
on the door should she answer it

unhappy

she whispered into the pumpkin's ear
the pumpkin head nodded and its face
seemed to brighten

and whistled on her way to bed

early she went to her window and looked
out into her garden
