My Turkey

To the tune of: I'm a Little Teapot

I have a turkey, big and fat.

He spreads his wings
(fan hands at hip).

And walks like that.
(strut back and forth).

His daily corn he would not miss,
(pretend to eat corn).

And when he talks, he sounds like this
( gobble, gobble).

10 Fat Turkeys

10 fat turkeys standing in a row
(hold up ten fingers)

They spread their feathers and tails like so
(spread fingers)

They strut to the left

They strut to the right
(move fingers left and right)

They say Gobble, gobble, gobble

in the bright sunlight

The Turkey

(Open left hand, palm facing forward, place right hand fist in center of left palm with thumb extending outward)

Gobble, Gobble
Says the Turkey
(wiggle thumb so show turkey speaking)


Soon t'will be Thanksgiving Day

Will you eat me?

How you treat me!

I will run away!

(wiggle fingers and move both hands quickly behind back as turkey runs away)

Mr. Turkey went out one Day

Mr. Turkey went out One Day

(hold up one hand)

In bright sunshiny weather

He met Mr. Duck along the way

(hold up other hand)

They stopped to talk together

(hold up both hands)

Gobble, gobble, gobble

Quack, quack, quack

Gobble, gobble, gobble

Quack, quack, quack

And then they both went back

(hands behind back)

Quack!

Turkey is a Funny Bird

A turkey is a funny bird

(hold up one hand)


Watch him wobble, wobble

(sway hand)


All he knows is just one word


Gobble, gobble, gobble!
