Dad flew back to Canada and found us sleeping in the barn,
Late one Saturday night,
We got burned by the candle; it fell down on our clothes,
We told him that it was all right,
Your mom was on a road trip, sleeping in the Rockies,
With your sister staring at the stars,
And you hope with all your heart
That they’ll go oh so far, oh so far,
Will the music grow us a home?
When the time come to slow down our roaming?
Will the music grow us a home?
When the time comes to slow down?
They came back through Canada from Pinawa on Christmas eve,
Following the feet in the snow,
The travel agency was over run on Christmas Eve,
And it was time to go,
They drifted in and said it’s time we had our medicine,
Church was finally done,
Had nothing to dream about,
Except tomorrow’s fun,
Will the music grow us a home?
When the time come to slow down our roaming?
Will the music grow us a home?
When the time comes to slow down?
Will the music grow us a home?
When the time come to slow down again?
Will the music grow us a home?
When the time comes to slow down?

Randall Take your Turkey it’s been lurking in the fridge too long
Christmas came and went,
Box Day dollars are all spent,
The credit card’s been lifting strong,
Randall Take your Turkey, The gravy’s getting murky,
The stuffing drying out and stale,
This Christmas we were alone,
But we spent it on the phone,
And sister sent a fruitcake in the mail…
Randall Take your Turkey it’s been lurking in the fridge too long
New year came and went,
Resolutions are all bent,
Their notions drifted in and now they’re gone,
Randall Take your Turkey, the fridge is smelling quirky,
The turnips have begun to fail,
Everybody knows,
That only sometimes does it snow,
And someday we’ll get that fruitcake in the mail,
Randall take your turkey turkey X 2
Randall take your turkey on home
