Thanksgiving is a uniquely American Holiday. It is a beautiful holiday that does not get enough recognition and tends to get lost in the commercialism of Christmas. It deserves it is own special song and we should take the time to celebrate this holiday to the fullest. It is a time of peace and love, where families gather to thank God for all the Blessings he has bestowed on this great country. The words of this song celebrate the greatness of this holiday and some of the Blessings we enjoy as Americans. Performed by Uppercut featuring Brent Carter.
