It's the Ninth of November

It's the Ninth of November By Franklin Price 11/9/2015 It's the ninth of November It's time to remember I've much to be thankful for I've got a good life And a wonderful wife Many friends and family galore Got food on the table Still walk 'cause I'm able Have a leakless roof over my head Live in a nice 'hood All my neighbors are good At night I sleep in a nice bed I'm retired, that's right Have no traffic to fight That means I'm older of course When I worked it was fun But I'm glad I am done Looking back, I have no remorse Hope you're as thankful as me That's as much as can be In enjoyment in life I am rich Have no money to burn But for little I yearn And for little about which to ***** It's not long 'til Thanksgiving Thank God I'm still living In closing to you I must say Hope you're as happy as I That's as happy as pie Which I'm going to have Turkey day
