Jambalaya on the Bayou

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

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie, fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou

Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, and go hog wild, and be gayo
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie, fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayo
(Oh, guitar) Settle down far from town, get me piroque and I'll catch all the fish in the baio
Swap my monto buy Ivonne what she need-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
Pick guitar fill fruit jar and be gaio
Son of gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou
