Five Little Turkeys Rhyme
Saturday, November 5th, 2005It’s November and that means Turkeys! Here’s a favorite Thanksgiving song…
Five Little Turkeys
Five little turkeys by the barn door,
One waddled off, then there were four.Four little turkeys under a tree,
One waddled off, then there were three.Three little turkeys with nothing to do,
One waddled off, then there were two.Two little turkeys in the noonday sun,
One waddled off, then there was one.One little turkey – better run away!
