Do you know where he’s gone?

He wears a suit that’s made of green,

Made of green, made of green.

He wears a suit that’s made of green

Do you know where he’s gone?

He lives by a rainbow and hides his gold,

Hides his gold, hides his gold.

He lives by a rainbow and hide his gold.

Do you know where he’s gone?

If you see a leprechaun,

Leprechaun, leprechaun.

If you see a leprechaun,

Please tell me where he’s gone!

GROUNDHOG WONDERLAND SONG

(to the tune of "Winter Wonderland")

Groundhogs hoot, are your listening?

'Neath the sun, all is glist'ning

A real warm light we're happy tonight

Waitin' in a Groundhog wonderland.

In the field, we're watching for the Groundhog.

We've been waiting for this day all year.

Do you think that he will see his shadow?

And will we know if springtime's almost here?

Later on, while we're eating

What we got on Groundhog Day

We'll share all our sacks

Of good Groundhog snacks

Waitin' in a Groundhog wonderland.

I'M DREAMING OF THE GREAT GROUNDHOG SONG

(to the tune of "White Christmas")

I'm dreaming of the Great Groundhog

Just like I do this time each year

When he brings nice weather

And brings us together

To wait for him to appear.

I'm dreaming of the Great Groundhog

With every groundhog card I write.

May your Groundhog's Day be bright

When the Great Groundhog visits you tonight

UP AT THE KNOB SONG

(To the tune of "Up On The Housetop")

Up at the Knob the groundhogs pause

Sitting up and showing claws.

Is there a shadow her today?

If not spring is on the way.

Cheer, Cheer, Cheer

Spring is here!

Cheer, Cheer, Cheer

Spring is here!

Up at the Knob it is so clear

We're waiting for Springtime to appear!

Version 2: If Phil sees his shadow

Up at the Knob the groundhogs pause

Sitting up and showing claws.

"I see my shadow." says old Phil

Six more weeks of winter chill.

Boo, hoo, hoo,

We're so blue!

Boo, hoo, hoo,

We're so blue!

Up at the Knob when shadows come

Six more weeks till we have sun!

Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid and Donder and Blitzen.
But do you recall,
The most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph the red nosed reindeer,
Had a very shiny nose.
And if you ever saw it,
You even say it glowed.
All of the other reindeer,
Use to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Rudolph,
Join in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve,
Santa came to say.
"Rudolph with your nose so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then how the reindeer loved him,
As they shouted out with glee.
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer,
You'll go down in history.

Reindeer Pokey

(tune: "Hokey Pokey")

You put your antlers in.
You take your antlers out.
You put your antlers in,
And you shake them all about.
You do the Reindeer Pokey,
And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your right hoof in....
You put your left hoof in ...
You put your red nose in....
You put your fluffy tail in...
You put your reindeer body in...

Five Little Turkeys

Five little turkeys by the barn door
One waddled off, then there were four.
Four little turkeys out under the 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, there there was one.
One little turkey - better run away!
Soon will come Thanksgiving Day.

Six Little Turkeys

Sung to: "Six little ducks"
Six little turkeys that I once knew
Fat ones, skinny ones
There were two.
But the one little turkey with the
Funny red wattle.
He led others with his
Gobble, gobble, gobble.
Over the rocks and through the trees
Turkeys wobbling in the breeze,
But the one little turkey with the
Funny red wattle,
He led the others with his
Gobble, gobble, gobble.

We Eat Turkey

“I Eat Turkey”

(“Frere Jacques” tune)

I eat turkey,
I eat turkey.
Yes, I do,
Yes, I do.
Turkey in my tummy,
Yummy, yummy, yummy.
Good for me,
Good for you.
*substitute turkey with other Thanksgiving food such as cranberry sauce, corn, and stuffing.

A Turkey

“A Turkey”

(“ Pop Goes the Weasel” tune)

A turkey is a funny bird,
His head goes wobble, wobble.
And he knows just one word,
Gobble, gobble, gobble.

Six Little Pilgrims

“Six Little Pilgrims”

There were six little pilgrims on Thanksgiving Day
And this is what I heard them say.
The first one said, “I’ll have a turkey leg.”
The second one said, “I’ll have a boiled egg.”
The third one said, “I’ll have some green peas.”
The fourth one said, “I’ll have cranberries, please.”
The fifth one said, “I’ll have pumpkin pie.”
The sixth one said, “I’ll have cake by and by.”
There were six little pilgrims on Thanksgiving Day
And that’s exactly what I heard them say.
