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 good fun on the bayou. Chorus: Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a file' gumbo 'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou. --- Instrumental --- Thibodeaux, 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 big fun on the bayou. Chorus: Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a file' gumbo 'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou...
