    Thanksgiving Day Is Almost Here


    Thanksgiving Day is almost here
    And families from miles around
    Are gathering again, for old fashioned
    cheer
    And heading homeward bound


    Its busy at the ole homestead
    And mother has a twinkle in her eye
    Fathers gathering wood from the old woodshed
    For Thanksgiving Day is nigh


    And aunt and uncle, sister, brother
    Are excitedly preparing
    To visit again with dad and mother
    For old time-- Thanksgiving sharing


    And wafting aromas will tantalize
    It sure has been awhile
    And we'll build again those family ties
    As we come across the mile


    Though snowflakes, may bring tangy weather
    Everyone will still be there
    For Thanksgiving brings us all together
    And there wont be an empty chair


    We'll feast upon an array of dishes
    From turkey, potatoes, gravy, and dressing
    And break the wishbone, as we make our wishes
    After father says grace--and gives the blessing


    And we will reminisce- of days gone by
    With laughter, love, and chatter
    And have a slice of pumpkin pie
    For these are the times that matter


    This is the day-that brings us all together
    It comes -but once a year
    And we will brave the frosty weather
    To share some Thanksgiving cheer.
