Thanksgiving is upon us and this is a great time to sing about that funny bird, the turkey.
Turkey Jerky Sung to “The Hokey Pokey”
You put your right wing in
You put your right wing out
You put your right wing in
And you shake it all about
You do the Turkey Jerky (strut like a turkey)
And you turn yourself about
That’s what it’s all about (Turkey Jerky)
Alternate verses: Left wing, drumsticks(legs), stuffing(tummy), waddle (neck), head, tail feathers

See my feathers Sung to “Mary Had a little lamb”
See my feathers colored bright
Colored bright, colored bright
See my feathers colored bright
What a pretty sight
(link thumbs and wiggle fingers for feathers)
See me tummy big and fat
Big and fat, big and fat
See my tummy big and fat
What do you think of that?
See my head look all around
All around, all around
See my head look all around
For corn upon the ground
See me as I strut and sway
Strut and sway, strut and sway
See me as I strut and sway
This is what I say:
Gobble, gobble, gobble
