Paroles: Hank Williams. Jambalaya (On the Bayou).

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.

[Chorus]
Jambalaya, and a crawfish pie, and a file gumbo.
Cause' tonight I'm gonna' see my Machez amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar, and be gay- oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun, on the buyou.

Thibodeaux to 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.

[Repeat Chorus x2]

[3rd verse not released on studio cut]

Settle down far from town, get me a pirogue.
Then I'll catch all the fish in the bayou.
Swap for mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
