She wakes up at 4 a.m. and puts her apron on
Preps everything with love, for the big feast later on
Turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes and dressing
Sips coffee in between and counts her blessings
She thanks the Lord for all the love that surrounds her
Praises Him for always making a way
No bells and whistles just good food and family cheer
Thanksgiving is her favorite time of year
She bakes fresh bread and pies and whips up fresh cream
Her family and friends complete the table of dreams
She works until her back breaks for this labor of love
It's the best day of year that she's been dreaming of
And she thanks the Lord for all the love that surrounds her
Praises Him for always making a way
No bells and whistles just good food and family cheer
Thanksgiving is her favorite time of year
She smiles as they sit around the table and pray
It's the perfect culmination of her day
And she thanks the Lord for all the love that surrounds her
Praises Him for always making a way
No bells and whistles just good food and family cheer
Thanksgiving is her favorite time of year
Her favorite time of year...
