Good-bye, Joe, me gotta go, me oh, myo

Me gotta pole the beruea down the bayou

My Yvonne sweetest one me, oh, myo

Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya crawfish pie, filet gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my cher-mio

Pick guitar, fill friut jar and be gay-o

Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou

Fondaonknow, thiloboxa, the place is buzzin'

Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen

Dress in style, go hog wild, me oh myo

Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya crawfish, pie filet gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my cher-mio

Pick guitar, fill friut jar and be gay-o

Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou

Settle down far from town get me a peiro

And I'll catch all the fish on the bayou

Spend my mon, to buy my gun for the need-o

Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya crawfish pie, filet gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my cher-mio

Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o

Son of a gun we're gonna have big fun on the bayou
