"Yeah" is a song recorded by American country music artist Joe Nichols. It was released in January 2014 as his second single for Red Bow Records and from his eighth studio album Crickets (2013). The song, written by Ashley Gorley and Bryan Simpson, is about a man having a one night stand in the summer with a woman.

It also charted outside the Hot 100, peaking at number 41. The song was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and has sold 612,000 units in the United States as of September 2014.

The song is a mid-tempo about a man experiencing a summer night with a woman. Throughout, he responds to various situations with the word "Yeah".

Giving it a "B", Tammy Ragusa of Country Weekly praised the production: "there's something about that opening riff and midtempo, thumping groove that hints toward all of the warm-weather goodness that the impending summer holds—without being an in-your-face bikinis, babes and brews blaster." She also praised the "warmth" of Joe Nichols' voice.

"Yeah" debuted at number 59 on the U.S. Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week of January 25, 2014, at number 44 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for the week of March 1, 2014, and at number 98 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart for the week of May 10, 2014.
