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 crawfish pie filé gumbo

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

Pick guitar filled 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

Dressed in style go hog wild oh me oh my oh

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

Jambalaya crawfish pie filé gumbo

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

Pick guitar filled fruit jar and be gay o

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

Jambalaya crawfish pie filé gumbo

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

Pick guitar filled 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
