Good bye Joe me gotta go me oh my oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Ivonne my sweetest one me oh my oh
Son of a gun will have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, a craw fish pie, a fillet gumbo
Because tonight I'm gonna see my mi cher a mio
Fill fruit jar, a pick guitar and be gayo
Son of a gun will have big fun on the bayou

Thibidaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin
Kinfolk come to see Ivonne by the dozen
We dress in style and go hog wild me oh my oh
Son of a gun will have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, a craw fish pie, a fillet gumbo
Because tonight I'm gonna see my mi cher a mio
Fill fruit jar, a pick guitar and be gayo
Son of a gun will have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, a craw fish pie, a fillet gumbo
Because tonight I'm gonna see my mi cher a mio
Fill fruit jar, a pick guitar and be gayo
Son of a gun will have big fun on the bayou
Son of a gun will have big fun on the bayou
Son of a gun will have big fun on the bayou
