Fats Domino › Lyrics › Jambalaya (On the Bayou)

Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh
Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya and a craw fish pie and filling gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma Cher Amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin'
Kinfolks come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, go hog wild and be gayo
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya and a craw fish pie and filling gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
