There's a country dance at the only hall in town
And everybody comes from all around
They wanna hear a gobble and a scratchin' on the ground
They come from far and wide to hear the turkey sound
Turkey in the straw!
(Haw haw haw)
Turkey in the hay!
(Hay hay hay)
And the old folks dance with their mother in law
As they dance to a tune we call turkey in the straw
They dance to the left and they dance to the right
They dance to the tune all through the night
And a shriek and a gasp, they gave him such a fright
A turkey dancin' with them
What a wonderful sight
Turkey in the straw!
(Haw haw haw)
Turkey in the hay!
(Hay hay hay)
And the old folks dance with their mother in law
As they dance to a tune we call turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw!
(Haw haw haw)
Turkey in the hay!
(Hay hay hay)
And the old folks dance with their mother in law
As they dance to a tune we call turkey in the straw
