| 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 |
