Hi girls! When I was in kindergarten, we learned a song that I think was called, "Jack O'Lantern." It was a very long time ago, and I have since forgotten all the lyrics. I can't find them online anywhere, either. Wonder if anyone knows the song? Lyrics go something like this:

Jack O'Lantern, Jack O'Lantern
You are such a funny sight!
As you sit there in the window
Looking out at the night

You were once a yellow pumpkin
Sitting on a sturdy vine
Now you.....

Can't remember the rest. Would love to know it. I would really like to include the lyrics in a scrapbook page I'm creating for my son from when he was little.

Thanks so much for your help!

Is this it?

Jack-o'-lantern . .jack-o'-lantern
You are such a funny sight
As you sit in the window
Looking out at the night

Once you were a yellow pumpkin
Growing on a sturdy vine
Now you are a .jack-o'-lantern
Let the candle light shine

YES!!! I BELIEVE IT IS!!! YOU ROCK, AMY!!! Thank you!!!! Finally! I learned it about 40 years ago, and have sung it every year at the pumpkin patch, but only the first stanza - that's all my siblings and I could remember. Thank you!!!! I can't wait to tell them. I'm tickled! (I'm so silly, I know... But fall makes me feel like a little kid again, and for that you just have to sing a little kid song!) ;) - Nini
