First Fall Out Boy-Uma Thurman now its Wandavision
This is quite possibly one of the greatest theme songs of all time.
+EiferBrennan yess
Addams Family theme much more memorable & better to sing to. No one remembers the words to the Munsters theme.
I think it is
The Munsters & Hawaii Five-O are the 2 best TV theme songs.
Listen to Secret Agent Man from basically the same era :)
THE MUNSTERS THEME was written by Jack Marshall, a guitarist who forever gave The Munsters a place in surf music history.
what a team. Yvonne De Carlo was gorgeous, coupled with Fred Gwynne and Al Lewis was a classic.
No one else could’ve filled their characters!
@@robertvillarreal4525 this new batch certainly won't. Rob Zombie is doing a Munsters movie
LMFAO Agatha Harkness has entered the chat
Agatha was dumb. It is insulting they borrowed this song for her.
It's been Agatha all along 👯♀️🍺
it's💃been💃agatha💃all💃along💃
It's been her all along....
So it's her*wink* all along!
While in High School, in the Marching Band, we used to play this during breaks
How awesome was that!
Philip Shirk we play this too but the uma Thurman version
@@xx_colton_xx LOL - that's hilarious!!! ;D
Nice
RIP Sparky 🙏🏽
May he rest in peace **quiet witch laughing**
lyrics:
If you should meet this strange family
Just forget what some people have said,
The Munsters may shake your hand clammily
But they're not necessarily dead.
Behind their house you mustn't be afraid
To see a figure digging with a spade.
Perhaps someone didn't quite make the grade
With the Munsters, with the Munsters.
If when you're sleeping you dream a lot,
Ghoulish nightmares parade through your head,
And then you wake up and scream a lot,
Oh the Munsters are under your bed.
At midnight if creatures should prowl about,
And if vampires and vultures swoop down.
And werewolves and fiends shriek and howl about,
Oh the Munsters are out on the town.
One night I dared peek through their window screen,
My hair turned white at such a crazy scene.
Because every evening its Halloween
At the Munsters, at the Munsters.
I can now rest in peace (is that too farfetched?) knowing the words to the Munster's Theme song
I'll get my shovel.
LOL!
Understandable, what a find
@@Pynaegan And I will take the shoes! Huehuhu!
ITS BEEN AGATHA ALL ALONG!!
And I killed Sparky too HAHAHA
Fred Gwynne would be 88 today. You are really missed, big guy.
Horror Boom! He passed away i didnt know that man thats sad.
Rip Fred
Bout 92 now... :(
I recognized him years ago in the original Pet Semetary
I never knew the theme had words!
+star trek This is a cover. The real one has a child singing.
Me either.
the words were added when they made the movie
I Dream of Jeannie has lyrics too. (No, not the Will Smith song ...)
Many classic TV shows have lyrics for their themes. The producer received an extra cut of the profits if he contributed lyrics -- which per contract law are considered "creative content" on his part -- whether or not they were actually used. With ST: TOS and Hogan's Heroes, for instance, it's best nobody ever heard them in first run. I believe the "McHale's Navy" theme has lyrics, too.
It's been Agatha all along! 🧙♀️🔮
It was Agatha All Along!
Perfect song to blare for Halloween
Yes I am so going to put this on my playlist
The theme always had words. When it first came out.
Can't get enough of '60s sitcoms!
What is your favorite?

The first autograph that I ever acquired was Pat Priest Marilyn Munster my mother help me write a letter to her in the fall of 1965 and she sent me a sheet sized headshot that was autographed. I was 9 years old and was thrilled to get it because I thought she was so pretty
My favorite gothic family. Great tune !
It was Agatha all along 🎶
Herman from the series later played the judge in the movie My Cousin Vinny where he had the famous line "What's a Ute?" Which is a Youth or a Utah Ute. Never mind all that the theme song was great never knew it had words.
Are you mocking me with that outfit?
@@AceofSwords205 The store got the flu. You get that? The entire store got the flu!
It was the munsters all along !!!
Great theme song. Imaginative lyrics. Perfect in everyway. Thanks 1964 tv audience for having the patience for opening theme songs. Modern folks do not realize the possible classics like this we are missing due to our limited attention span.
The original theme for the show didn't even have lyrics. It was just 44 seconds. And what are you talking about? Pretty Little Liars, Game of Thrones, The Fosters, etc. They all have theme songs around that same span of time.
+Bianca Gray A 22 minute program has no time for full-length theme songs. Many TV Themes turned into pop hits and sold millions of records. Most of them had lyrics when they were composed. I can't imagine ALL theme songs to be full-length with lyrics each time a show is broadcast on TV. Have some common sense!
+Bianca Gray I believe the words were there all along. I have the LP by the original cast, including this song.
Many shows, as the seasons progressed, would cut the original theme even shorter, to either sell more ads, or add more time to the actual episode. (Usually by listing the credits during the opening scene.)
the part with the lyrics was made for the movie, not the series
i love the vocal version
I knew i wasn't crazy! I knew the theme had lyrics
You are absolutely right.
I heard this exactly once before, it was around 1967 or so. Thank you for posting this.
It was Agatha all along!
Who’s been pulling every evil string? It’s been Agatha all along!
Beverley Owen (the original actress who played Marilyn for the first 13 episodes) died 6 months ago yesterday. May she R.I.P. Now the only remaining main cast members are Pat Priest (Owen's successor) and Butch Patrick (Eddie).
Agatha All Along!
63 yrs and that's the 1st time I heard it. Love it❤

I played "The Munsters" slot machine here in Vegas for years just to hear the theme song when the reels spun & hit the bonus & watch a video of Herman saying "I'm Rich"! Thanks for posting the vocal version (With GREAT GRAPHICS)!!!!!!
Thanks a million for posting !!! i grew up on re-runs on the 80s my favorite show, what a gem of a song
II was born in 1978. I have watched and watch this classic television show! I love this theme song, and this is the first time I have heard the lyrics! I wish the lyrics had been included in the original series! I love it! Thank you for posting and sharing this! I love the music and the lyrics!
It was the Munsters ALL ALONG!
Fuckin' AWESOME!!!!
This version RULES!!!
I love the Munsters! I use to watch this show every time I would go visit my grandma as a kid. I have such good memories with this show I can't help but smile when I hear the music 😊
When the song Uma Thurman came out and I heard it the first time. I was like holy shit it's the Munsters theme!!!!!
I know. I felt the same way. 💀☠👿👹
This is a really great sound and the lyrics are wonderful. I hadn´t never heard this version before, but it´s both cool and terrific!!! I like it!! : D.
I love this version of the Munster's Theme Song. If y'all haven't done so yet, y'all need to add Monster Mash, and it's 420 Parody, Monster Hash to this Playlist. That would be so totally awesome to complete this Hallow'en Theme Music Playlist with .
Every time I play this, I play it 10/12 x's in a row.😂
Great find... I love it !!!
someone should do an Addams Family theme and The Munsters theme mashup
Wow! I never knew there were words to this song! This is so nifty! :)
great stuff for the best time of the year,thanks for posting
I always loved there car!
Dragulas are pretty awesome!
I love this Video, and the vocals and the theme song. My daughter she loved it to.
I have this as my ringtone on my iPhone 5c
It's been Agatha all along🎵🎵🎵
Our music teacher showed us this some of my class and me was laughing at the father lol
Cool theme song,Very funny sitcom,Words matched👍 the picture🙃☺👏
Thank you Internet.
That was SO interesting, pretty cool
I LOVE THIS SHOW!! :D It's really funny! XD
I hope this song will be in the upcoming Rob Zombie film.
Don't think I've ever heard this with vocals before. A number of of TV themes had lyrics that we never heard, like "Fishin' Hole," from The Andy Griffith Show" and the theme from Bonanza. Somewhere out there is video of the original cast from Bonanza singing the song.
Rozalin Shadowheart Yup! It is called Fishing Hole actually sung by Andy Griffith on one of his albums back in the day. I am sure it can be found on here somewhere. Another theme song that has lyrics is M*A*S*H which is called Suicide Is Painless which is actually somewhat a depressing song from Johnny Mandel
Would I lie? Well, yuh, cause my name is not reeeallly Jack Tripper, Go figure! It is actually, not really in the same tone but the same tune is there.
Jack Tripper +Rozalin Shadowheart There are several copies of "Fishin' Hole" on RUclips, as performed by Andy Griffith. He whistles one verse, and that is the one they used for the show.
MerlinsDragon1970 I looked that up, and the Bewitched theme was an original song written for the show by Jack Keller, with lyrics by Howard Greenfield. Although the lyrics were never used in the show, IMDb says that several singers recorded the song including Steve Lawrence and Peggy Lee.
Awesome! I myself will have to check that out. Peggy Lee was a helluva singer back in the day... She was the original artist for "Why Don't You Do Right" from Who Framed Roger Rabbit" although Amy Irving (source: movies.stackexchange.com) made it famous by slowing down the beat and making it sexy sounding style. Peggy Lee's original version was very upbeat and up-tempo style. Wasn't the words to Bewitched featured in the movie? I have not seen it in years even though I own it, and seem to remember them at a casting celebration party and the words was sung by a Frank Sinatra style singer, might have been Jack Keller as you just mentioned himself.
I've been on the box set collection for over 3 weeks now and I'm near to the end, that gives me a great reason to start over once again! Bwaaahh huh huh hah ha huh huh! The MUNSTER' S LIVE!
Thank you!
Cool music
Nice!! I've heard the creepy version of the song that sounds like it was sung by kids, but this is great too.
Love this ❤️
You will float
Love it.Groovy.
I love this
ROCK n ROLL DADDY- O ! ✌
great version of the theme . I had the the record at the munsters as a kid in pa. watched the show every fri. nite after school. what memories. thanks 4 posting . polywog690 Indiana,pa. jimmy stewarts hometown.
In 1983 Butch Patrick has his own band called Eddie and the Munsters and Butch Patrick recorded a novelty song called: "Whatever Happened to Eddie", he's the kid from Mockingbird Lane'
Yeaaa words to a great theme! 🎉🎉🎉
brillent theme and the munsters tv show
Love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I swear they play this over the music system at the grocery store I work at every year around Halloween.
THANK YOU HONEY !!!
BRAVO!
awesome
love it
Set the cool factor to maximum boys and girls these cats wrote the book on groovy baby.
I’d trade my velvet shorts to go back and hang out with them.
Herman went down to the local coffee ☕️ house for some poetry reading. No one has yet come up with some cooler dude rap yet. Those beatniks were blown away by the big green poet.
Like man, that cat is deep, far out!
Guitarist Billy Strange wrote this,BTW!
The theme with lyrics first showed up on the LP "At Home with the Munsters" (Golden Records 139)
I love that we’re All here because of Agatha
ivonne de carlo...buffvery prety
Great as an instrumental.
Herman was a great musician.
cool song
One LESS tune, forever floating around inside My 60 year old head...🤯
Could be worse tunes floating around in your head.Islands in the stream.Lol
RIP Fred gywnne
One of the greatest in cinematic and and play as well as Broadway history and one that deserve much more attention. No one can ever fill his shoes and he will always be missed and remembered.
Brilliant! I also like the 'Messer Chups' version as well.
This is the original for the TV show. Yes they has some of the lyrics on the end credits, but not all episodes just a few rare ones when the TV show like the special episodes and the single final color season.
My summer is going great
Its been agatha all along
good luck !
Stuttering John from The Stern Show interviewed Fred years ago and asked him ridiculous questions. Parts 1 and 2 are on RUclips.
I never knew there was lyrics with the theme song. Interesting.
Die munsters sind cool
