13 Perfectly Nostalgic Songs About Thanksgiving
For all the great Christmas songs out there, there really aren’t all that many about Thanksgiving.
That’s just plain not fair. Turkey Day might get lost in Christmas’ shadow a bit, but it’s still one of the best days of the year: From the food to the family, it’s a holiday that deserves its moment in the spotlight.
That’s why Taste of Country is compiling this list of perfectly nostalgic songs for your Thanksgiving playlist. It’s easy enough to find country music with a theme of gratitude, but we took it a step further.
Each and every song on this list is either about Thanksgiving itself or a food closely associated with the holiday, with one exception. One submission on this list is about family dynamics — something that admittedly isn’t explicitly about the November holiday, but does come up at quite a few Thanksgiving tables each year.
