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

Written by：Cliff Crofford[00:00:00]

My dad used to raise turkeys for Christmas[00:00:08]

And about a week before he'd take them into town[00:00:11]

He always kept ther biggest one 'specially for us[00:00:15]

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

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

Just hatched with a lot of growing to do[00:00:25]

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

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

I named him Henry and with a young boys touch[00:00:36]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Course I never thought about the one dad sold[00:01:05]

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

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

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

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

And sure enough Henry was left[00:01:23]

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

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

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

And everything was quiet exceptn' the old hall clock[00:01:37]

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

Then we jumped straight up when the axe hit that choppin' block[00:01:48]

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

All of us a runnin' around[00:01:54]

And dad just stood there grinnin' at us[00:01:56]

Then we heared a goblin sound[00:01:59]

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

But that was alright with us[00:02:06]

And there weren't a one of us[00:02:09]

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

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