Lyrics

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 good fun on the bayou  
  
Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a fillet gumbo  
'cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio  
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh  
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.  
  
Thibodeaux, fountaineaux, 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 big fun on the bayou.  
  
Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a fillet gumbo  
'cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio  
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-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 machez amio  
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.  
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
