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 a filé gumbo

'Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my ma chère amie, oh

Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay, oh

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

The Thibodeauxs, the Fontenots, 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

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and a filé gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma chère amie, oh

Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay, oh

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

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and a filé gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma chère amie, oh

Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay, oh

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

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

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

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