Alice’s Restaurant.?It’s now a Thanksgiving classic, and admittedly something of an odd one.?Recorded in 1967, the 18+ minute counterculture song recounts Arlo Guthrie’s real encounter with the law, starting on Thanksgiving Day 1965.

Part 1 is above; Part 2 here. Happy Thanksgiving to all who will celebrate today.
