Mmmmmm, something cold is creepin’ around.
Mmmmmm, something cold is creepin’ around.
Blue Ghost is got me, I feel myself sinkin’ down.

Black cat and a owl, come to keep my company.
Black cat and a owl, comes to keep my company.
He understands my troubles, mmm, and sympathize with me.

I been in this haunted house, for three long years today.
I been in this haunted house, for three long years today.
Blue Ghost is got my shack surrounded, oh Lord, and I can’t get away.

I feel cold arms around me, and ice lips upon my cheeks.
I feel cold arms around me, ice lips upon my cheeks.
My lover is dead, how plainly plain I can hear her speak.

Oh Lonnie, oh Lonnie …oh Lonnie, sweet Lonnie [spoken words - falsetto voice]
That’s my baby … [spoken words – Lonnie Johnson]

My windows begin rattlin’, my doorknob is turnin’ ‘round an’ ‘round.
My windows is rattlin’, doorknob is turnin’ ‘round an’ ‘round.
My lover’s ghost is got me, and I know my time won’t be long.
