Song Lyrics
$10,000 Turkey
(the Fried Turkey Song)
verse 1
Holiday shopping this morning, I signed up for some giveaways
Won a big ole frozen turkey, I knew it was my lucky day
We didn’t have time to bake it, so I lit up the turkey fryer
We were all set for a great big feast, instead we got a two alarm fire
chorus
It was a well-done holiday, they want to give me the blame
Was that frozen bird that hit the hot oil, you’ve never seen such a flame
It burned down our carport, two bicycles (a deer stand) (a beer cooler) and my truck
We won a free turkey, cost us ten thousand bucks
verse 2
What do you do when the turkey’s gone, good thing there’s a ham
It’s heavenly aroma filled the house before the smoke blew in
Our dogs must have smelt it too, they helped themselves to that treat
Now we’ve got no turkey, got no ham, there’s nothing left to eat
chorus
bridge
I’ll try my best to be thankful, but it’s hard to celebrate
With a burned up, shribbled turkey and a hambone on my plate
chorus
(Songwriter: Kirk Green 2010)
