Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead Lyrics - Maureen Mcgovern

Once, there was a Wicked Witch 

In the lovely land of Oz 

And a wickeder, wickeder, wickeder, 

Wickeder Witch, there never was 

She filled the folks in Munchkinland 

With terror and with dread 

'Til one fine day from Kansas way, 

A cyclone caught a house that brought 

The Wicked, Wicked Witch her doom 

As she was flying on her broom 

For the house fell on her head 

And the coroner pronounced her dead 

And through the town, the joyous news was spread 

Ding dong! The Witch is dead 

Which old witch, the Wicked Witch! 

Ding dong! The Wicked Witch is dead 

Wake up, you sleepy-head 

Rub your eyes, get out of bed 

Wake up, the Wicked Witch is dead 

She's gone where the goblins go, below 

Below, below, yo-ho 

Let's open up and sing 

And ring the bells out 

Ding dong! The merry-oh 

Sing it high, sing it low 

Let them know the Wicked Witch is dead! 

SCATTING INTERLUDE 

Ding dong! The Witch is dead 

Which old witch, the Wicked Witch! 

Ding dong! The Wicked Witch is dead 

Wake up, you sleepy-head 

Rub your eyes, get out of bed 

Ding dong! The Wicked Witch is dead 

She's gone where the goblins go, below 

Below, below, yo-ho 

Let's open up and sing 

And ring the bells out 

Ding dong! The merry-oh 

Sing it high, sing it low 

Let them know the Wicked Witch is dead! 

SPOKEN: 

She's dead!
