Jambalaya (on the Bayou)

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 and a crawfish pie and file gumbo

Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio

Pick guitar fill fruit jar and be gay-o

Son of a gun we'll 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 me oh my oh

Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Settle down far from town get me a pirogue

And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie

Later on, swap my mon, get me a pirogue

And I'll catch all the fish on the bayou

Swap my mon, to buy Yvonne what she need-oh

Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie
