One of the best singer of his own songs too

Will you do it? (Yeah) right there

"Jambalaya On The Bayou", let's go

Goodbye, Joe, me gotta go, me-oh, my-oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me-oh, my-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, a crawfish pie and a fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my ma chaz ami-o
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
(Oh, yeah)

Thibodaux, Fontaine aux, the place is buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, go hog wild, me-oh, my-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have much fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, a crawfish pie and a fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my ma chaz ami-o
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have much fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, a crawfish pie and a fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my ma chaz ami-o
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
