November: Thanksgiving
Tunes
 Mr. Pumpkin
(Tune: Where is Thumbkin)
Mr. Pumpkin,
Mr. Pumpkin,
Round and fat.
Round and fat.
Harvest time is coming.
Harvest time is coming.
Yum, yum, yum.
That is that!
I'm A Little Pumpkin
(Tune: I'm a little teapot)
I'm a little pumpkin
Orange and round.
Here is my stem,
There is the ground.
When I get all cut up,
Don't you shout!
Just open me up
And scoop me out!
 Albuquerque Turkey
(Tune: Clementine - Oh My Darlin')
Albuquerque is a turkey
And he's feathered and he's fine
And he wobbles and he gobbles
and he's absolutely mine.
He's the best pet that you can get..
Better than a dog or cat.
He's my Albuquerque turkey
And I'm awfully proud of that.
He once told me, very frankly
he preferred to be my pet,
not the main course at my dinner,
and I told him not to fret.
And my Albuquerque turkey
is so happy in his bed,
'Cause for our Thanksgiving dinner...
We had egg foo yong instead.
Turkey Trouble
(Tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb)
We cooked turkey, nice and hot,
Nice and hot, nice and hot.
We cooked turkey nice and hot
On Thanksgiving Day.
We eat turkey a whole lot,
A whole lot, a whole lot.
We eat turkey a whole lot.
It will not go away!
Sandwiches and soup are fine.
By the way, would you like mine?
Pot pie lasts a long, long time,
It's turkey every day!
TURKEY DINNER
(Tune: Are You Sleeping)
Turkey dinner, turkey dinner,
Gather round, gather round,
Who will get the drumstick,
Yummy, yummy drumstick,
All sit down, all sit down.
Cornbread muffins, chestnut stuffing,
Pudding pie, one foot high,
All of us were thinner, til we came to dinner,
Me, oh, my, me, oh, my!
 Mr.
Turkey
(Tune: Are You Sleeping)
Mr. Turkey, Mr. Turkey
Nice and fat, nice and fat
I am going to eat you
I am going to eat you
Just like that.
Just like that.
Turkey, Turkey
(Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star)
Turkey, Turkey look at you
Please be careful what you do.
Thanksgiving day is almost here.
We eat turkey every year.
Go and hide out in the woods.
We’ll eat pizza like we should.
I'm a Turkey
(Tune: Yankee Doodle)
I'm a turkey, big and fat.
I spread my tail.
I walk like that.
Each day's corn I will not miss,
And when I talk, I sound like this:
GOBBLE! GOBBLE! GOBBLE!
 God's
Blessings
(Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star)
We are thankful for the ways
That God's blessed us all today.
Thanks for moms and dads so dear.
Thanks for food and clothes we wear.
We are thankful for the ways
That God's blessed us all today.
Let's be Thankful for this Day
(Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star)
Let's be thankful for this day,
For our friends and our play.
Let's be thankful, let's be glad,
For our food and the things we have.
Let's give thanks for you and me,
And our home and family.
Little Pilgrim
(Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star)
Little Pilgrim clothed in gray
On that first Thanksgiving Day,
Little Indian clothed in brown
Come to visit Plymouth Town,
Side by side they ate and prayed
On that first Thanksgiving Day.
We are Thankful
(Tune: Are You Sleeping)
We are thankful, we are thankful,
For our food, for our food.
And our many blessings,
And our many blessings,
Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord.
