Thankful? Ye jest bet yer boots!
I hain’t got no complaint ter make:
The world has used me square enuft-
I hain’t ben scratched by its muck rake

Thankful? Wall, now I shed say!
We’ve hed good health an all or that;
An’ while our latch string’s always out,
No foe has trod on our door mat

Thankful? Shorely that we aire-
Fer bounteous crops, and friends galore,
Fer peace of mind, and kindly hearts,
An’ hope beyond the allent shore
