The Thanksgiving Song |
| Familiar highways |
| Lined with leaves turned brown |
| Making my way |
| Back into my hometown |
| Funny how this all looks different |
| But it feels the same |
| Like how life never stops changing |
| But some things never change |
| So, fill your plate and fill your drink |
| And fill this house with family |
| The kind of love that all these years can’t wash away |
| 'Cause the older that I get I see |
| That life is short and bittersweet |
| Thank God for this Thanksgiving Day |
| Mm, yeah |
| Watching football, watching families grow |
| The old kid’s table all have kids of their own |
| Starting to see my grandfather in my nephew’s eyes |
| Mom still can’t talk about him and not almost cry |
| So, fill your plate and fill your drink |
| And fill this house with family |
| The kind of love a thousand miles can’t wash away |
| 'Cause the older that I get I see |
| That life is short and bittersweet |
| Thank God for this Thanksgiving Day |
| So fill your plate and fill your drink |
| Put your dishes in the kitchen sink |
| And let the leftover year just wash away |
| 'Cause we made it through, I do believe |
| The longest year in history |
| Thank God that it’s Thanksgiving Day |
| Mm, yeah |
