Southern Nights Lyrics

Momma said that they used to go

Out to Miller's field, where all the kids showed their asses off

And yeah Momma said Daddy was something

All wild and crazy, young and free

But that ain't what she wanted to see

She was leaning towards being responsible

But as she was leaving

He ran right up to her and then

He said the only thing tonight that I can't stop thinking

I've never felt love like this before tonight

Maybe it's the fireflies

Maybe it's the moonlight that caught me by surprise

Yeah but right here under this starlight

When I looked in your eyes

I thanked the Lord for making these Southern Nights

Well my Dad said I know all about

How you think that you're never gonna settle down

But when you find the one, son your hearts gonna skip a beat

I never believed any of that

Till your smile bout gave me a heart attack

And I was caught in a daze

Yeah I knew something had changed

And all through that evening

It felt a little like dreaming

And the only thing that I just couldn't stop thinking

I've never felt love like this before tonight

Maybe it's the fireflies

Maybe it's the moonlight that caught me by surprise

Yeah but right here under this starlight

When I looked in your eyes

I thanked the Lord for making these Southern Nights

I've never felt love like this before tonight

Maybe it was those fireflies

I've never felt love like this before tonight

Maybe it's the fireflies

Maybe it's the moonlight that caught me by surprise

Yeah but right here under this starlight

When I looked in your eyes

I thanked the Lord for making these Southern Nights

Yeah them Southern Nights
