Thanksgiving Is
Tom T. Hall
You gotta be thankful for the Bible Jesus oand your mom and dad
For your bike and for your clothes and for your butter and for your bread
For your shoes and socks and underthings and all the clothes you wear
And be thankful for your nose and your hair that's what thankgiving is
You gotta be thankful for your eyes and ears and fingers and your hands
For your legs and for your arms and for the folks who understand
Fot your music and your books and for your teachers and your school
And be thankful that you're warm and that you're cool that's what thankgiving is
You gotta be thankful for your food and for the turkey and the ham
Gotta be thankful for the milk and cookies jelly and the jam
For the road and for the car and for the bus and for the drive
And you really gotta be thankful you're alive that's what thankgiving is
You gotta be thankful for the sun and moon and wind and rain and air
For the bed and for the bath and for the table and the chairs
For the friends and for the toys and TV and the radio
And be thankful that your record player goes that's what thankgiving is
You gotta be thankful for your dog and for your cat and for your horse
You gotta be thankful for the fish and for the pretty birds of course
You gotta be thankful for the flowers and the forest and the lawn
Well you understand we could go on and on
