[Verse 1]
Turkey’s in the oven
Casseroles in a row
Kids’ coats on the doorknobs
Milo by the window
Frank’s laughing in the kitchen
Pouring bourbon on one rock
Name tag still on his jacket
From the corner liquor shop
[Chorus]
It’s Franksgiving
Pass the plate
Pour the cheer
Franksgiving
Same bad jokes every year
To the man who keeps us steady
Til the day we’re old and ready
Raise your glass
We’re living
In the love of Franksgiving (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Semi-retired mornings
He still opens up that door
Knows your story and your favorite
Before you hit the floorboard
But here he’s just our granddad
Guardian of this wild clan
Holding babies
Carving turkey
With those tired
Gentle hands
[Chorus]
It’s Franksgiving
Pass the plate
Pour the cheer
Franksgiving
Same bad jokes every year
To the man who keeps us steady
Til the day we’re old and ready
Raise your glass
We’re living
In the love of Franksgiving
[Bridge]
Here’s to every late-night rescue
Every quiet “I’ve got you”
From the head of this long table
We see what love can do (hey!)
[Chorus]
It’s Franksgiving
Pass the plate
Pour the cheer
Franksgiving
Year by year you keep us here
To the man who keeps us steady
Til the day we’re old and ready
Raise your glass
We’re giving
All our thanks on Franksgiving
