The night is very dark | A |
And we've to go a mile or so | B |
Across the Possum Park | A |
- | |
Step light | C |
Keeping to the right | C |
If we delay and lose our way | D |
We'll be out half the night | C |
The clouds are low and gloomy Oh | B |
It's just begun to mist | E |
We haven't any overcoats | F |
And Hist Hist | E |
- | |
Mo poke | G |
Who was that that spoke | G |
This is not a fitting spot | E |
To make a silly joke | G |
- | |
Dear me | H |
A mopoke in a tree | H |
It jarred me so I didn't know | B |
Whatever it could be | H |
But come along creep along | I |
Soon we shall be missed | E |
They'll get a scare and wonder where | J |
We Hush Hist | E |
- | |
Ssh Soft | E |
I've told you oft and oft | E |
We should not stray so far away | D |
Without a moon aloft | E |
- | |
Oo Scat | E |
Goodness What was that | E |
Upon my word it's quite absurd | E |
It's only just a cat | E |
But come along haste along | I |
Soon we'll have to rush | K |
Or we'll be late and find the gate | E |
Is Hist Hush | K |

Kok Korrock | I |
Oh I've had a shock | I |
I hope and trust it's only just | E |
A frog behind a rock | I |
- | |
Shoo Shoo | L |
We've had enough of you | L |
Scaring folk just for a joke | I |
Is not the thing to do | L |
But come along slip along | I |
Isn't it a lark | I |
Just to roam so far from home | M |
On Hist Hark | I |
- | |
Look See | H |
Shining through the tree | H |
The window light is glowing bright | E |
To welcome you and me | H |
- | |
Shout Shout | E |
There's someone round about | E |
And through the door I see some more | N |
And supper all laid out | E |
Now run Run Run | O |
Oh we've had such splendid fun | O |
Through the park in the dark | I |
As brave as anyone | O |
- | |
Laughed we did and chaffed we did | E |
And whistled all the way | D |
And we're home again Home again | P |
Hip Hooray | D |
