Thanksgiving

V1
November is that special time of the year
When our eyes and our hearts can see clear
We have so many things to be thankful for
And we all bow our heads to pray a little more
V2
We can't wait till the 4th Thursday arrives
So we can eat turkey and pumpkin pies
Some will travel near and some travel far
It's a family tradition no matter who you are
CHORUS
We say wow the kids have grown so big
How you doing it's good to see you again
What's that cooking sure smells good in here
And Momma I love what you did to your hair
We share stories of days gone by
And we laugh until we all cry
Then we take time for that extra hug
Thanksgiving brings out the best in all of us
V3
Turn the TV on it's time for the game
Send the Kids outside to go and play
Wash all the dishes and put things back where they go
Then pull up a chair it's time to throw down some dominos
V4
It's easy to come but so hard to go
By the end of the day we all know
It's time for that long drawn out goodbye
We're thankful for the memories until next time
