On this day Of giving thanks Be my girl [?] We sat on down Upon the shore She spoke alone Forevermore Be myself Caught in the moor Around the lake And it flowed out, it flowed out, it flowed I went around and around and around And my girl Went for a swim To cleanse herself On Thanksgiving She ebbed on in She dove on down She wrapped herself In the weeds on the bottom For to drown [x3] She wrapped herself around and around and around [Spoken] And I just rode my boat ashore And I took out my fishing hook and wrapped it with my oar And I threw my hook into the lake, and it just floated down And it embedded inside her neck
And I pulled her onto the shore And I dragged her around forevermore And I say With my hook inside her crook I drug her around and round With my hook inside her crook Yes, I drug her around and round Around and around Around and around Yeah, I drug her around Now would she die It caused me sad But I give thanks For what I have I ripped the hook Out her skin On this day Of Thanksgiving And to this day Around my neck I wear that fish and fishing hook for To protect, to protect, to protect From going around and round [x4] Well, drag me around and round Going round and round and round
