'Tis Time to Give Thanks


Over the river and through the woods
to Grandmother's house we go.
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
through the white and drifted snow. Oh!


Over the river and thru the wood,

Oh, how the wind does blow!

It stings the toes, and bites the nose,

As over the ground we go.

Over the river and thru the wood,

To have a first-rate play;

Oh, hear the bell ring,

"Ting-a-ling-ling!"

Hurrah for Thanksgiving Day-ay!

Over the river and through the woods
Trot fast my dapple gray.
Spring over the ground like a hunting hound
For this is Thanksgiving Day, Hey!



Over the river and through the woods
And through the barnyard gate.
We seem to go extremely slow
It is so hard to wait!
Over the river and through the woods
Now Grandmother's face I spy.
Hurrah for the fun,
Is the pudding done?
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie!
