How to Play

Lyrics:

There were five little turkeys
Sittin' on a fence
"A-gobble, gobble, gobble" all day
Along came a doggie with an "Arf, arf, arf!"
And frightened Mr. Turkey away
"Gobble, gobble, gobble!"

There were four little turkeys
Sittin' on a fence
"A-gobble, gobble, gobble" all day
Along came a doggie with an "Arf, arf, arf!"
And frightened Mr. Turkey away
"Gobble, gobble, gobble!"

There were three little turkeys
Sittin' on a fence
"A-gobble, gobble, gobble" all day
Along came a doggie with an "Arf, arf, arf!"
And frightened Mr. Turkey away
"Gobble, gobble, gobble!"

There were two little turkeys
Sittin' on a fence
"A-gobble, gobble, gobble" all day
Along came a doggie with an "Arf, arf, arf!"
And frightened Mr. Turkey away
"Gobble, gobble, gobble!"

There was one little turkey
Sittin' on a fence
"A-gobble, gobble, gobble" all day
Along came a doggie with an "Arf, arf, arf!"
And frightened Mr. Turkey away
"Gobble, gobble, gobble!"
