There was a ship, Mayflower by name;
Hey, Ho~
Took a trip, she crossed the main;
Hey, Ho~
Full of people seeking peace,
Praying for freedom to increase;
Hey, Ho, Dee-o, Dee-o!
The Pilgrims came to Plymouth Rock;
Hey, Ho~
Simple people, strudy stock;
Hey, Ho~
To be free they crossed the sea,
Thanked the Lord on bended knee;
Hey, Ho, Dee-o, Dee-o!
How when the crops were gathered in;
Hey, Ho~
A dinner party did begin;
Hey, Ho~
Pilgrims, Indians, pumpkin pie,
Turkey, venison, corn, oh my!
Hey, Ho, Dee-o, Dee-o!
Bet you thought my song was done;
Hey, Ho~
But I've really just begun;
Hey, Ho~
Ever since that autumn day,
Thanksgiving has been here to stay,
Hey, Ho, Dee-o, Dee-o!
