Halloween song The very best part of Halloween Is getting more candy than you’ve ever seen. I’ve got my scariest costume on. I scare myself when I’m all alone.   Sun goes down, I’m all dressed up, I set out to try my luck. Walkin’ up and down the street, I knock on the door and say… Trick or treat, trick or treat, Give me something good to eat.
