Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, down the bayou
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 bayouJambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a file gumbo
Yeah tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have a little fun on the bayouThibodeaux, 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 a little fun on the bayou
Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a file gumbo
Well, tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Pick guitar, gonna fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou
