Alices Restaurant- Thanksgiving Tradition
Great anti-war song kids, all us geezers love it. Used to be every Thanksgiving the FM Radio guys would play it - at 18 minutes they had time to eat turkey and get baked before going back on the air.

5. They still do play it on the radio here in Boston.
Listened to it at noon today. I love it! It's not a complete Thanksgiving without it.

6. Arlo, the Republican, has Woody spinning in his grave
Got no use for Republicans who got rich as a hippie and the son of America's greatest writer of songs for the people. Trying to keep all his money from the taxman. Fuck you Arlo
