Lady Antebellum are celebrating this Thanksgiving with a fun parody of a song you may have heard. Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood enjoy creating parody songs of popular hits and this holiday, they've come up with their own take on Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road."

Charles says, “I’m not gonna lie, we did have a Thanksgiving one that we literally were piddling around with and we wrote like in 30 minutes backstage. And Dave of course, is just so fast with everything. He found like a track and we literally recorded it on this laptop called ‘Turkey Mode,’ and it’s to ‘Old Town Road.’ So it’s like a Thanksgiving one.”

So far, “Turkey Mode” has yet to surface online. According to Charles, “We had plans to do a big video and they’ve gone by the wayside.”

However, he did say there’s still a chance they could release the song online before the holiday, so keep an eye on Lady Antebellum’s social media.
