When Thanksgiving comes it doesn't much matter Whether it snows or the raindrops batter; Whether it's bright, clear and sunny We don't care at all, now isn't that funny? Just satisfied for a family day at home Without the slightest yen to roam. What jolly hustling to and fro Ten at least at table, isn't that SO? What a day to stay long in bed! The women folks to see that all get fed; Whoopsl the dinner table looks swell The missus right proud of her cranberry JelL Who cares if the weather is fair or murky!
