  • The Turkey Song (A funny Thanksgiving Song) by Bryant Oden

    Here’s the Youtube video for The Turkey Song, a funny kids’ song for Thanksgiving. Download it here


    Once in a while a song goes from idea to Youtube pretty darn fast. I wrote this song on Nov 9th, and on Nov 10th (today) I went to Scott Martin’s studio to record it. Scott did the instruments on keyboard, and also sang background. We spent a few hours creating it, and then I went home, made the video, and just now put it on youtube. Some songs take days or weeks (or more!) so I love it when a song comes together this fast.

    Lyrics and Chords to The Turkey Song

    Here are the guitar tabs and lyrics to The Turkey Song: A Funny Song for Thanksgiving

    C G C G
    It’s Thanksgiving day and we’re gathered round
    C G C D
    Little children make a joyful sound
    And there’s no school and we get to play
    And we’re all thankful for this day
    C D G
    Except for the turkey
    La lala la la la la la except for the turkey

    There’s a wreath of leaves on the front door
    And we all say what we’re thankful for
    There’s such good food and there’s such great fun
    And there’s such big smile’s on everyone
    Except for the turkey
    La lala la la la la la
    Except for the turkey

    We all join hands and sing this song
    with happy hearts and a love that’s strong
    We bow our heads then we have our feast
    It’s a lovely day to say the least
    Except for the turkey
    La lala la la la la la
    Except for the turkey
    (repeat last line as instrumental )

    So if you’re a turkey and you’re still alive,
    you might kinda wanna hide
    Or soon you’ll probly be dead meat
    On this festive day you’re what we eat
    So fly away to a distant land
    Where people think turkeys are grand
    Spread your wings and sore up high
    And be thankful that birds can fly
    Except for the turkey.
    La lala la la la la la
    La la la la la la la
    La lala la la la la
    Except for the turkey

    It’s Thanksgiving day and we’re gathered round
    Little children make a joyful sound
    There’s such good food and there’s such great fun
    It’s a Happy Thanksgiving for everyone
    Except for the turkey
    La lala la la la la la
    Except for the turkey
