Why aren't there any Thanksgiving songs?

Gobble, gobble, gobble
Gobble up the turkey
We were getting tired
Of that old beef jerky

@21stCenturyFox finally some one with creativity! 😊

@MrAboo Thanks for BA. Do you think it could be a hit?
MrAboo · 36-40, M
Only one way to find out!

Yeah,like something along the lines of "How the white man gave the Indians smallpox as their parting gift"
Or "Let's Steal all the Indians Land"

@Foxyfoxfox Well that's part of it, is that Thanksgiving is really only celebrated in America and to a lesser extent Canada. Unlike Christmas or Halloween which are celebrated in a variety of countries, and thus have lots of music associated with them from old folk songs and stuff.

@BlueMetalChick you strike a good point.
MrAboo · 36-40, M
@Foxyfoxfox I'd still think there would be some kind of song in reference to it all

No one wants to see people singing Thanksgiving carols around the dinner table with chunks of turkey and cranberry salad flying out of their mouths.

Jingle Bells was originally a thanksgiving song

@UserNameSW really?
UserNameSW · 46-50, M
@MrAboo yes it was originally called one horse open sleigh and was a thanksgiving song

@MrAboo hahaha! Well it is a song
MrAboo · 36-40, M
I guess, just by a terrible "entertainer"

I can think of a couple but they're mostly kids songs.

I sing Thanksgiving hymns, such as "Now thank we all our God".
