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 fil é * gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio

Pick guitar fill fruit jar and be gayo

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

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fil é gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio

Pick guitar fill fruit jar and be gayo

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

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