CELEBRATING THE ONCE-IN-A-LIFE-TIME-CONVERGENCE OF THANKSGIVING AND CHANUKAH! NOVEMBER 28, 2013.

THANKSGIVUKKAH
(Tune: Sweet Caroline, by Neil Diamond)

VERSE 1

Who would’a thought
That you would be together
And that your love would grow so strong?

Everyone knows
You have a lot in common
And, that you're sure to get along!

Thanks…
Double thanks
Celebrate
Thanksgiving
With Chanukah!

CHORUS 1

Thanksgivukkah
(Oy, oy, oy!)
Latkes never tasted so good
(So good, so good, so good!)

We all agree (all agree!)
Religious freedom is real good, good, good, good….


VERSE 2

The candles are lit
The dreidels are spinning wildly
We count our blessings, you and I
Turkey and corn
Latkes with sweet potatoes
Soof-ga-neeyot* and pumpkin pie!



Thanks…
Double thanks
Celebrate
Thanksgiving
With Chanukah!


CHORUS 2

Thanksgivukkah
(Joy, joy, joy!)
Turkey never tasted so good
(So good, so good, so good!)

We all agree (all agree)
Religious freedom is real good!

(Musical interlude….)

Thanksgivukkah
(Oy, oy, oy!)
Turkey never tasted so good

Thanksgivukkah
Religious freedom is real good!

Thanksgivukkah
(Joy , Joy, Joy)
Latkes never tasted so good… (Fade out)
