Hi, Looking for something for thanksgiving. I'm going away for the holiday, and have been told I am expected to sing for everyone!!!! OK, I can do that. But material is another matter. I thought a heartfelt song about family gathering would be nice. Anyone have any thoughts???? Thanks, Hummingbird.

Put "Thanksgiving" in the search box and you get a couple good suggestions including "Thanksgiving Eve" & "Grandma's thanksgiving". OK YOu might not want to do "Alice's Restaurant". Other lighter fare from the DT include "The Pheasant Plucking Song" and "Place in the Fire". I didn't find the old hymn "Thanksgiving Prayer (aka We Gather Together) but I swear there was a thread on this may last year about this time.

Here are some verses that can be sung to "Frere Jacques"

Turkey dinner, turkey dinner,
Gather 'round, gather 'round
Who will get the drumstick? Yummy yummy drumstick,
All sit down, all sit down.

Cornbread muffin, chestnut stuffin'
Pumpkin pie, one foot high
All of us were thinner 'fore we came to dinner
Me oh my, me oh my.

Next thanksgiving, next Thanksgiving
Save some bread, save some bread
Stuff it in your turkey, stuff it in your turkey,
eat the bird, eat the bird.

Refresh, Maybe something abouth people gathering, sharing memories, etc. Doesn't have to necessarily be about Thanksgiving. Thanks again Hummer.
