It's almost Thanksgiving
And everyone's home
Stuck to the bar
Where we used to go
We're gonna drink till somebody heaves
As we get together
On this Thanksgiving Eve
Everyone's out
And everyone's here
For this little bar
It's the biggest night of the year
Times, they are changing like the color of leaves
We're all looking different
On this Thanksgiving Eve
Some change for the better
Some change for the worse
The valedictorian
Is clutching her purse
The social director, he has tricks up his sleeve
We'll see what happens
On this Thanksgiving Eve
So pour me a tall one
Or pour me a short one
Drinking's a crime, babe
And I'd like to report one
I've been voluntarily overserved, I believe
But that is what happens
On Thanksgiving Eve
So here's to the good times
To strangers and friends
And I hope that next year
We'll meet again
But right now bartender says, "Y'all got to leave"
Good luck and farewell
On this Thanksgiving Eve
