Thanks Eaten
Carrot cake and pudding pie
Shake and Bake and Turkey thighs
more then eyes can eat
Stuffing oven loving
munching, crunching teeth
oh what a splendid time we make
here in Thanksgiving week
Football games and Charlie brown
turning frowns to smiles
Marshmallow covered sweet potatoes
buttons popping at the navel
I love to hear the sound of family
gathering at the table
Now bow our heads
with holding hands
for giving thanks
may all our prayers be said
Now say good-night
cause when its time
we'll be so glad
we'll eat so fast
we'll wind up going to bed
Happy Thanksgiving...
