Recited or sung to the melody of Teddy Bear’s Picnic by Henry Hall and his Orchestra.

​

If you go down
to the Old House tonight
you’re sure of a big surprise
If you go down
to the Old House tonight
a vampire will tell you lies!

​

For every girl that ever there was
in Collinwood will go there because
the night’s the time
the vampire will hypnotize her.

​

Every girl in The Old House
is sure of a treat tonight.
There’s lot of secrets and wine and jewels
and wonderful games to play.

​

Beneath the cellar where nobody knows
she’ll find a coffin and then he will rise
Tonight’s the night is when he’ll drink her blood.

​

Moonless nights for vampires
He is having a lovely time tonight
Watching, catches her unawares
brushing her long hair aside
She’s hypnotized.

​

Now he leans in for the bite
she has a big surprise
he’s thirsty tonight!

​

At six o'clock the cock will crow,
the sun will rise again,
the coffin lid creaks shut.

​

If you go down
to the Old House tonight
You better not go alone.

​

It’s much safer in daylight
but better to stay at home…

​

For every girl that ever there was
in Collinwood will go there because
the night’s the time
the vampire will hypnotise her.
