Goodbye Joe, me gotta' go, me oh my oh
Me gotta' go pole the pirogue down the buyou
My yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun, on the buyou
Jumbalaya, and a crawfish pie, and a filé gumbo
Cause' tonight I'm gonna' see my Machez a mio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar, and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun, on the buyou
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
Jumbalaya, and a crawfish pie, and a filé gumbo
Cause' tonight I'm gonna' see my Machez a mio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar, and be gay- oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun, on the buyou
Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a filé gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez a mio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
