Lyrics
Refrain
I’m gonna stay right here
Where the Jack O’ Lanterns grow
I’m gonna wake each morn
When the rooster starts to crow
Then when I’m through milking the cow
I’ll be out working the plow
While the birds sing a little “Hello”
I’m gonna settle down
With a certain gal I know
Until the day comes ’round
When I must really go
Then should the Angels whisper
“What have you been?”
I’ll say “I’ve been a Reuben”
Down where the Jack O’ Lanterns grow
Performance
