Josephine ♫ ♫
I know you’ve never seen my face
You’ve never heard my name
Although I’ve never talked to you
I’ve got you on the brain
Josephine, I’ve seen you in my dreams
Josephine, I’ve seen you in my dreams
I’ve never had the confidence
To talk to you before
The time has come and here I am
Knocking on your door
Josephine, I’ve seen you in my dreams
Josephine, I’ve seen you in my dreams
♫♫
I talked to Josephine last night
And now she knows my name
I told her how I feel and then
She looked at me as if I was insane
Josephine, I’ve seen you in my dreams
Josephine, I’ve seen you in my dreams
You know I’ve never felt so stupid before
Standing at Josephine’s door
You know I’ve never felt so stupid before
Standing at Josephine’s door
Josephine, I’ve seen you in my dreams
Josephine, I’ve seen you in my dreams

Thanksgiving
Then and Now
Americans celebrate Thanksgiving Day on the fourth Thursday of November. It is one of the oldest American holidays. On Thanksgiving Day, Americans remember the Pilgrims – a small group of people who came to America more than 350 years ago.
The Pilgrims wanted to practice religion in their own way. The government of England did not permit this, so the Pilgrims left England. In September 1620, 102 of them got on a ship and sailed to America. Their ship was named the Mayflower.
The voyage was long and hard. The ship was small and crowded. Many Pilgrims became sick. Some of them died. After 66 days at sea, the Mayflower landed.
The Pilgrims named the place where they landed, Plymouth. They started to build houses there, but winter came very soon. They were not ready for the cold. They did not have enough warm clothing and food. Half of them died that winter.
At last, spring came. Some friendly Indians taught the Pilgrims how to hunt and how to plant new vegetables – beans, corn, and pumpkins.
During the summer of 1621, their corps grew. In the fall the Pilgrims had a big harvest. They wanted to give thanks for the food, so they had a big feast and invited their Indian friends.
The first Thanksgiving celebration lasted three days. There was plenty of food to eat. There was turkey with nuts, beans, cornbread, and a sauce made from cranberries. For dessert, there was pumpkin pie. During the celebration, the Indians and the Pilgrims played games together.
In the United States today, Thanksgiving is a lot like the first Thanksgiving in Plymouth. Friends and families get together for a big dinner. They eat the same food that the Pilgrims and Indians ate in 1621. They often watch a football game in the morning or afternoon. In some cities, like New York and Philadelphia, there are big Thanksgiving Day parades. For modern Americans, Thanksgiving Day is also a day for giving thanks for the good things they have enjoyed during the year.
