Jambalaya (On the Bayou) Lyrics

Composer : Hank Williams

Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh
Me gotta go pull the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne sweetest one, me oh my oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Thibodeaux, Fontenot, the place is buzzin' (Buzzz)
The kinfolks come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Well they dressed in style, go hog wild, me, oh my oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, crawfish pie, filet gumbo
For tonight I'm gonna see my ma chere ami-oh
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou (Come on Jimmy)

(Sounds real gone)
(Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo)

I'll settle down far from town I'll get me a pirogue
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou
Swap my mon' buy Yvonne what she need-oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, crawfish pie, filet gumbo
For tonight I'm gonna see my ma chere ami-oh
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
(Johnny)
(Oh saw that thing man)

Jambalaya, crawfish pie and filet gumbo
For tonight I'm gonna see my ma chere ami-oh
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalya, crawfish pie, filet gumbo
For tonight I'm gonna see my ma chere ami-oh
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
