The Little Girl and the Turkey

by Dorothy Aldis

The little girl said
As she asked for more:
“But what is the Turkey
Thankful for?”

At Grandma’s House

I like the taste of turkey
Any time throughout the year
But it never seems to taste as good
As when Thanksgiving’s here.

Could be it’s all the trimmings
That are cooked with it to eat
But I think it’s eating at Grandma’s house
That makes it such a treat!

Buying Turkeys

A man bought a number of turkeys at a cost of $60.00, and after reserving fifteen of the birds he sold the remainder for $54.00, thus gaining 10¢ a head by these.
How many turkeys did he buy?

Turkey Pokey

HAPPY THANKSGIVING :-)

You put your right wing in, put your right wing out,
You put your right wing in and you shake it all about,
You do the Turkey Pokey and you turn yourself around,
That’s what it’s all about!

You put your left wing in, put your left wing out,
You put your left wing in and you shake it all about,
You do the Turkey Pokey and you turn yourself around,
That’s what it’s all about!

You put your red beak in, put your red beak out,
You put your red beak in and you shake it all about,
You do the Turkey Pokey and you turn yourself around,
That’s what it’s all about!

Five little turkeys

Five little turkeys by the barn door,
One waddled off, then there were four.

Four little turkeys under a tree,
One waddled off, then there were three.

Three little turkeys with nothing to do,
One waddled off, then there were two.

Two little turkeys in the noonday sun,
One waddled off, then there was one.

One little turkey better run away!
Soon will come Thanksgiving Day!

Turkey in the Straw

As I was a-goin’
On down the road
With a tired team
And a heavy load
I cracked my whip
And the leader sprung
I says day-day
To the wagon tongue

Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Roll ‘em up and twist ‘em up
A high tuck a-haw
And hit ‘em up a tune called
Turkey in the Straw

Went out to milk
And I didn’t know how
I milked the goat
Instead of the cow
A monkey sittin’
On a pile of straw
A winkin’ at
His mother-in-law

Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Roll ‘em up and twist ‘em up
A high tuck a-haw
And hit ‘em up a tune called
Turkey in the Straw

I came to the river
And I couldn’t get across
So I paid five dollars
For a big bay hoss
Well, he wouldn’t go ahead
And he wouldn’t stand still
So he went up and down
Like an old saw mill

Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Roll ‘em up and twist ‘em up
A high tuck a-haw
And hit ‘em up a tune called
Turkey in the Straw

Did you ever go fishin’
On a warm summer day
When all the fish
Were swimmin’ in the bay
With their hands in their pockets
And their pockets in their pants
Did you ever see a fishie
Do the Hootchy-Kootchy Dance?

Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Roll ‘em up and twist ‘em up
A high tuck a-haw
And hit ‘em up a tune called
Turkey in the Straw

Wikipedia Lyrics
Turkey in de straw, turkey in de hay
Turkey in de straw, turkey in de hay
Roll ‘em up an’ twist ‘em up a high tuc-ka-haw
An’ twist ‘em up a tune called Turkey in the Straw

Gobble, Gobble

Gobble, gobble, gobble
Hear the turkey say
When November comes along
I think I’ll run away.

Foolish Question on Thanksgiving Day

I met a Turkey Gobbler
When I went out to play.
Oh, Mr. Turkey Gobbler,
How are you today?

GOBBLE, GOBBLE, GOBBLE
That I cannot say
Don’t ask me such a question
On Thanksgiving Day

The Turkey

The turkey is a funny bird
It’s head goes bobble, bobble
And all he knows is just one word……
Gobble-gobble!
