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're gonna have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya a crawfish pie 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're gonna have big fun on the bayou

[ guitar ]
Thibodaux Fontaineaux the place is a buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style go hog wild me oh my oh
Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya a crawfish pie...
Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou
Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou
