Thanksgiving is just days away and Lady Antebellum is getting fans in the Turkey Day spirit with “Turkey Mode,” a hilarious parody of “Old Town Road.”

In the just-released clip, the Grammy-winning trio sings about the Thanksgiving holiday and everything that goes along with it, including questionable green jello, a Honey Baked Ham, “cranberry from a can” and the iconic Macy’s Day Parade.

“I’m gonna slap this thing into turkey mode, I’m gonna eat ’till I can’t no more,” Lady A’s Charles Kelley sings to the tune of the Lil Nas X song.

The video features emojis that go with the lyrics as well as a few clips of Kelley dressed in what appears to be a too-small turkey costume.

“Pour some gravy on my stuffing/ Damn, I’m gonna feel disgusting,” he sings.

Watch the “Turkey Mode” video above.

Lady Antebellum recently released Ocean, their much-anticipated new album. The record features 13 tracks and is the trio’s most honest and vulnerable album to date.
