Thanksgiving Is |
You gotta be thankful for the Bible Jesus and your mom and dad |
For your bike and for your clothes and for your butter and for your bread |
For your shoes and socks and underthings and all the clothes you wear |
And be thankful for your nose and your hair that’s what thankgiving is |
You gotta be thankful for your eyes and ears and fingers and your hands |
For your legs and for your arms and for the folks who understand |
For your music and your books and for your teachers and your school |
And be thankful that you’re warm and that you’re cool that’s what thankgiving is |
You gotta be thankful for your food and for the turkey and the ham |
Gotta be thankful for the milk and cookies jelly and the jam |
For the road and for the car and for the bus and for the drive |
And you really gotta be thankful you’re alive that’s what thankgiving is |
You gotta be thankful for the sun and moon and wind and rain and air |
For the bed and for the bath and for the table and the chairs |
For the friends and for the toys and TV and the radio |
And be thankful that your record player goes that’s what thankgiving is |
You gotta be thankful for your dog and for your cat and for your horse |
You gotta be thankful for the fish and for the pretty birds of course |
You gotta be thankful for the flowers and the forest and the lawn |
Well you understand we could go on and on |
