An anonymous poem especially
written for the Southern Jewish
Weekly
We give thanks, oh how we're
grateful,
And appreciative, too.
That the villain, Mr.. Hitler,
Lives across the ocean blue.
We give thanks and blessings
dOubly
That he lives SO far away,
And is having SO much trouble
Causing strife in u. S. A.
We are thankful that his people
Are beginning to awake,
And will throw off Hitler's shack
les
Which they wore by their mistake.
We are thankful that we live here
In a land that's fair and free,
Where its people join together
Giving thanks for liberty.
