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 a fillet gumbo
Hey 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
[ piano ]
Settle down far from town get me a pirogue
I'm a gonna catch all the fish in the bayou
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie...
[ guitar ]
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie...
