Riding home one fateful night I experienced a fright For the road on which I rode Was the horseman's dark abode As I rode along my way The cold wind began to sway Something dark was drawing near And the horseman did appear His large horse was black as coal And he bellowed for my soul As I spurred my horse to flee But the horseman followed me His laugh echoed of the trees As my horse began to seize Soon enough, it dropped right dead As I faced the fiery head The horseman towered over me Cackling like a mad banshee I was under his dark spell But my fright I could not quell As the horseman took my life With the sharp edge of his knife His ego began to bloat As my soul began to float The horseman planned to replace The void with my corpse-like face But my head, it would not sit, He needed a better fit One by one he hunts us down Looking for his missing crown It's the fate he must follow In the town of Sleepy Hollow
