Gobble Gobble
Letra:
[English]
There are so many songs about Christmas
The reindeer, the lights and the gifts
We sing "chestnuts are roasting" and "marshmallows toasting"
And "here comes old jolly Saint Nick"
Now don't get me wrong, I sure love all those songs
But one holiday gets left out
You see, no one remembers a song for November
But that's gonna change starting now
Gobble gobble one, gobble gobble two
Gobble gobble me, gobble gobble you (listen to me now)
Gobble gobble three, gobble gobble four
Gobble gobble please can I have some more
Oh my my get that turkey in my belly
Oh my my with the cranberry jelly
Oh my my come on and sing it with me
Happy Thanksgiving
I stick a straw in the gravy boat
I'mma eat a dozen dinner rolls
Stretchy pants on that's how I roll
No judgement here, no judgement here
Grandpa's passed out passing gas (come on)
But we got pumpkin candles burning just for that (light 'em up)
Someone brought up politics now everybody's mad (Jesus 2020)
But you can't be mad when when the whole world's singin'
Gobble gobble one, gobble gobble two
Gobble gobble me, gobble gobble you (everybody now)
Gobble gobble three, gobble gobble four
Gobble gobble please can I have some more
Oh my my get that turkey in my belly
Oh my my with the cranberry jelly
Oh my my come on and sing it with me
Happy Thanksgiving
Oh my my get that turkey in my belly
Oh my my with the cranberry jelly
Oh my my come on and sing it with me
Happy Thanksgiving
Gobble gobble one, gobble gobble two
Gobble gobble me, gobble gobble you (listen to me now)
Gobble gobble three, gobble gobble four
Gobble gobble please can I have some more
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
