Lyrics The Day Before Thanksgiving - Darrell Scott
It's
the
day
before
Thanksgiving
I'm
not
feeling
much
of
thanks*
Just
a
low-grade
desperation
leaves
me
reeling
in
the
ranks
Just
when
I
think
I'm
getting
somewhere
it's
somewhere
further
to
fall
It's
the
day
before
Thanksgiving
that
is
all
I
don't
believe
the
pilgrims
sat
with
Indians
for
a
feast
A
self-proclaimed
holy
sailor
doesn't
break
bread
with
his
beast
But
then
again
he
had
a
musket
and
the
Indian
had
a
knife
And
the
musket
man
could
make
him
eat
for
life
I
don't
believe
this
country's
manifestering
destiny
Someone
just
cooked
it
up
and
it
is
fed
to
you
and
me
They
tell
us
who
to
love
and
war
and
never
ask
for
help
And
they
cannot
stand
us
thinking
for
ourselves
The
day
before
Thanksgiving
back
in
1991
A
millionaire
let
me
drive
his
Mercedes
just
for
fun
And
I
drove
it
with
the
top
down
on
them
Blue
Ridge
Mountain
roads
He
let
me
keep
it
thirteen
weeks
or
so
And
I
know
what
he
was
saying
with
that
car
that
wasn't
mine
That
I
could
have
one
too
if
I
just
did
not
cross
the
line
But
lines
were
made
for
crossing
and
I
was
born
to
crack
the
code
And
there
ain't
no
shame
in
walking
down
this
road
So
it's
turkey
breast
and
stuffing
with
gravy
on
the
top
Mashed
potatoes,
peas
and
dinner
rolls,
you
use
them
like
a
mop
Got
my
position
at
the
table,
got
a
child
to
say
my
grace
And
a
wife
and
boss
that
keeps
me
in
my
place
It's
the
day
before
Thanksgiving
I'm
not
feeling
much
of
thanks
Just
a
low-grade
desperation
leaves
me
reeling
in
the
ranks
Just
when
I
think
I'm
getting
somewhere
it's
somewhere
further
to
fall
It's
the
day
before
Thanksgiving
that
is
all
