Awaking As The Clock Struck Midnight

Awaking as the clock struck midnight
I saw a young lady in white.
When I said, “are you a vampire?”

Awaking as the clock struck midnight

When I said, “are you a vampire?”

Awaking as my clock struck midnight
I saw a young woman in white.
When I said, “are you a ghoul?”

Awaking as my clock struck midnight
I spied a young woman in white.
When I said, “are you a ghoul?”

Awaking as my clock struck midnight
I spied a young woman in white.
When I said, “are you a ghoul?”
She replied, “no, you fool!
I’m your mistress who’s name’s Miss Wright!”.

Awaking as the clock struck midnight
I spied a young woman in white.
When I said, “are you a naughty girl?”
She gave me a twirl
And then she turned out the light …

Who wrote a rhyme far from jolly.
But when a handsome stranger named Mow
Kissed her under the mistletoe
She composed a rhyme most jolly!
