Lyrics
(Melody B. Thompson, Lyrics Anonymous)
The turkey is a funny bird
Its head goes bobble-bobble;
And all he knows is just one word,
And that is gobble gobble!

Fat Turkey’s Song
Oh, gobble, gobble, gobble,
Fat turkeys, fat turkeys.
Oh, gobble, gobble, gobble,
Fat turkeys are we.
We walk very proudly and gobble so loudly,
Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble.
Oh, gobble, gobble, gobble.
Fat turkeys are we.

Mr. Turkey Song
I heard Mr. Turkey say,
Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble,
Soon t’will be Thanksgiving day,
Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble,
People say that it’s much fun,
But I think I’ll run and run
And hide until the day is done,
Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble,

Turkey
Let’s talk turkey!
What a walk it’s got!
Strut about, strut about,
Do the turkey trot!
Let’s talk turkey,
What a shaky wobble!
Strut about, strut about,
Gobble, gobble, gobble!
