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 good fun on the bayou.



Chorus:

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and a fillet 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.



--- Instrumental ---



Thibodeaux Fontainbleau, 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.



Settle down far from town get me a pirogue

And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou.



Chorus:

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and a fillet 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.

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

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