IT'S not to him who has his friends
To sit about his turkey.
That we propose this humble toast,
All hasty, short and jerky;
But unto him who sits alone
And dreams of bygone revels;
And unto him who dimes today
With we'll known dark blue devils;
And unto him who's sorrow S guest,
And unto him who, chatting,
Drinks down the gall and hides it all
Beneath mask of laughing.
We merry-makers lift our cups
And say: May next Thanksgiving
Bring better luck to every chap
Who's sorry now he's living
