In My Chain-Mail Vest ...

Sharp-dressed in my chain-mail vest

Knowing I'm looking my best

Machete at the ready

For some zombie beheading

And I've got some wood stakes too

Should some vampires need run through

Oh, what a glorious scene

A-slaying on Halloween

"Red Rover ! Red Rover !"

"Send your undead on over !"

I'll kill them all the way

Before All-Hallows Day

All while looking my best

In my Gucci chain-mail vest

we used to play Red Rover when we were kids...

and like ZZ Top sang..."Every girl's crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man."

Thanks. Yeah, we played Red Rover on all the holidays. ~Jim
