Default Ideas for a lesson on Ray Charles?

Hello

I'm a language assistant in a french lycée and my teacher has asked me to do a lesson with the secondes to tie in with her current topic of civil rights. She's going to be doing a lesson with them on Ray Charles and will show them some of the film 'Ray'. She's asked me to base my lesson on any one of his songs so that I can discuss with them the lyrics, meaning, etc.

I'm just having a little trouble choosing a good song to do, as I don't know Ray Charles' music that well...does anyone have any suggestions for a song of his that could provoke some good conversation/debate ideas?

Thank you!

S.
