Thanksgiving day was coming
And the snow was drifting high.
The boys and girls were skating,
And grandma was making the pie.
The next day was Thanksgiving,
And the your. folks ate the pie;
But the old folks came in the evening
When the child zen went to bed with a sigh.
And then they ate the Turkey,
But they didn't eat the pie,
One of the fellows ate so much
That they thought he would surely die.
And when they went home in the evening
The moon was shining high,
And the sleigh bells they were jingling
IS they rode under a cleaf blue sky.
