[00:00:00] Henry Had A Merry Christmas - Walter Brennan

[00:00:04] Written by：Cliff Crofford

[00:00:09] My dad used to raise turkeys for Christmas

[00:00:12] And about a week before he'd take them into town

[00:00:16] He always kept ther biggest one 'specially for us

[00:00:19] And mom'd cook it till it was golden brown

[00:00:23] One year he brought the usual batch home

[00:00:26] Just hatched with a lot of growing to do

[00:00:29] There was one awful skinny like he put in my care

[00:00:33] He never figured he'd pull through

[00:00:37] I named him Henry and with a young boys touch

[00:00:40] I finally got him to grow

[00:00:44] Now I knowed what'd happen if he'd growed to much

[00:00:47] I remember I used to tell him so

[00:00:51] Henry you're growing a way to fast

[00:00:54] Dad's got his eye on you

[00:00:57] And Christmas Day is goin' to be you last

[00:01:01] Eating the way you do

[00:01:06] Course I never thought about the one dad sold

[00:01:09] How they'd end up in the oven too

[00:01:12] But I'd seen what happened when the ones he'd chose

[00:01:16] And what him and that axe could do

[00:01:20] Early one morning dad took 'em to town

[00:01:24] And sure enough Henry was left

[00:01:27] And by Christmas Eve the way I moped around

[00:01:30] They all knew how bad I felt

[00:01:35] After supper dad left the house

[00:01:38] And everything was quiet exceptn' the old hall clock

[00:01:41] It was a long long wait

[00:01:49] Then we jumped straight up when the axe hit that choppin' block

[00:01:52] We shot out the back door to where dad was

[00:01:55] All of us a runnin' around

[00:01:57] And dad just stood there grinnin' at us

[00:02:00] Then we heared a goblin sound

[00:02:04] No we didn't have turkey that Christmas Day

[00:02:07] But that was alright with us

[00:02:10] And there weren't a one of us

[00:02:11] Who didn't want ot that way

[00:02:14] And you know Henry had a Merry Christmas
