[Verse 1]
People wonder 'bout the one-ree-o-ree
They ask about the ee-ree-ann
What does it mean, nickory-john
So I'll explain it the best I can
[Verse 2]
Down in the Mississippi Delta swamp
Where a stranger don't dare to go
Well, there's a wild-eyed man that's the head of a clan
And there ain't nothing that he don't know
[Verse 3]
He's got his mojo workin'
And so he knows what's a-happenin' next
With the one-ree-o-ree-ee-ree-ann
Well, it's a queery-quan Delta hex
[Interlude]
And ev'rybody's talkin' 'bout the seventh son
Well, in the whole round world there is only one
[Chorus]
And he's the one
He's the one
Well, he's the one, he's the one
The one they call the seventh son
People wonder 'bout the one-ree-o-ree
They ask about the ee-ree-ann
What does it mean, nickory-john
So I'll explain it the best I can
[Verse 2]
Down in the Mississippi Delta swamp
Where a stranger don't dare to go
Well, there's a wild-eyed man that's the head of a clan
And there ain't nothing that he don't know

[Interlude]
And ev'rybody's talkin' 'bout the seventh son
Well, in the whole round world there is only one
[Chorus]
And he's the one
He's the one
Well, he's the one, he's the one
The one they call the seventh son
