Thanksgiving songs: tunes about turkey, ham, gravy and more

Turkey.

Ham.

Mashed potatoes.

Gravy.

Veggies.

Pie.

Perhaps some beer and wine. Or something stronger.

There are many reason to love Thanksgiving. Here are some songs to help celebrate the holiday. Because, really, who wants to hear Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant" again?
