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 filé* gumbo | |
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio. | |
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo, | |
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. | |
Dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh. | |
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou. | |
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filé gumbo | |
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio. | |
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo, | |
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou. | |
Settle down far from town, get me a pirogue | |
and I'll 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 and filé gumbo | |
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio. | |
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo, | |
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou. | |
* Note by Jim Shilliday: | |
The word filé (with an acute accent on the e, | |
pronounced feelay) is a spice used to flavor the soup |
