Hi everyone,
 
To help get you into the Christmas spirit early enough to start your
shopping in time, here is the first of several Christmas Carols.  This
one is sung to the tune of "Oh Christmas Tree" or "Oh Tannenbaum"
 
Enjoy,
 
Mary Cohen
 
 
Oh Ferretone, Oh Ferretone,
Thou art so rich and tasty!
Oh Ferretone, Oh Ferretone,
We love thee more than pastry!
We wish we could drink you straight up,
But Mom pours some into a cup,
And thins the rest with veggie oil,
It is enough to make us boil.
 
Oh Ferretone, Oh Ferretone,
Thou hast a wonderous flavor.
Oh Ferretone, Oh Ferretone,
One which we'll always savor.
That new full bottle makes us glad.
When it's all gone, we feel so sad,
But Mom brings out a new supply,
And we all heave a grateful sigh.
 
Oh Ferretone, Oh Ferretone,
What would we do without thee?
Oh Ferretone, Oh Ferretone,
How empty would our lives be!
When we lie down to take a nap,
We dream about that open cap,
And watch Mom pour it in a spoon,
And in our sleep we softly croon.
 
Oh Ferretone, Oh Ferretone,
Our Christmas morning present!
Oh Ferretone, Oh Ferretone,
Who needs a roast stuffed pheasant?
You make our fur as soft as snow.
You give our eyes that special glow.
To thee we raise our grateful paws.
You're on our list to Santa Claus!
