Tricker Treat (1952)

from Trick or Treat Written by Mack David, Al Hoffman and Jerry Livingston. Musical Arrangement by Paul Smith Vocal by The Mellomen Originally written in 1948 for The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, but went unused in favor of The Headless Horseman song. Lyrics: Trick or treat, trick or treat Trick or treat for Halloween! Better give a treat that's good to eat If you wanna keep life serene. Trick or treat, trick or treat. Trick or treat the whole night through. Little scallywags with fiendish gags Can make it tough on you! Your little white house turns green, Your little white house turns green, Your little white house turns green! Every post is a ghost if you got a witch's brew. And if you want your gate to circulate, Oh-ho! We can do that too! Trick or treat, trick or treat Trick or treat for Halloween! When ghosts and goblins by the score Ring the bell on your front door, Better not be stingy or your nightmares will come true!
