Good-bye Joe, he gotta go, me oh my oh
He gotta go-pole the pirogue down the bayou
His Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my macher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin'
Kin-folk, come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style they go hog wild, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my macher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
Settle down far from town get him a pirogue
And he'll catch all the fish in the bayou
Swap his mom' to buy Yvonne what she need-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my macher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my macher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
