Southern nights,
Have you ever felt a southern night?
Free as a breeze
Not to mention the trees
Whistling tunes that you know and love so.

Play something sweet, play something mellow
Play something I can sink my teeth in like jello
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues.

I know we can make it, I know that we can
I know darn well we can work it out
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, why can't we
If we wanna get yes we can can.

Now I'm a happy fella
Well I'm married to the fortune teller
We're happy as we can be
And I get my fortune told for free.
