I love the Bing Crosby song from “Holiday Inn” that he sings (while missing his love, who has recently become engaged to another man) on Thanksgiving. So he is a little grumpy, but the song on its’ own is a happy, grateful, true story!
Best lines from this clip?
Mamie: Women has to have them things told to them the right way. You could melt her heart right down to butter, if you’d only turn on the heat.
Jim considers what Mamie is telling him.
Jim: Well, sure. [He is now resolved] Women has to be told things the right way.
Uh, yeah. Right. Anyway, I am singing this song all day today! Sing with me, come on! I have included lyrics! Because I am nice like that.

I’ve got plenty to be thankful for
I haven’t got
A great big yacht
To sail from shore to shore
Still I’ve got plenty to be thankful for
I’ve got plenty to be thankful for
No private car
No caviar
No carpet on my floor
Still I’ve got plenty to be thankful for
I’ve got eyes to see with
Ears to hear with
Arms to hug with
Lips to kiss with
Someone to adore
How could anybody ask for more?
My needs are small
I buy them all
At the five and ten cent store
Oh, I’ve got plenty to be thankful for
