Jambalaya (On the Bayou) Songtext
von Brian Hyland

Goodbye Joe
Me gotta go
Me oh, my oh
Me gotta go
Pole the piroque 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 crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
Cause tonight
I'm gonna see my me cheramio
Pick guitar
Fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun
We′ll have big fun on the bayou


Thibodaux, Fontaineaux
The place is buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne
By the dozen
Dress in style and go hog wild
Me oh, my oh
Son of a gun
We'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya
And a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
Cause tonight
I′m gonna see my me cheramio
Pick guitar
Fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun
We′ll have big fun on the bayou

Settle down far from town
Get me a piroque
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou
Swap my Mom to buy Yvonne
What she need-o
Son of a gun
We′ll have big fun on the bayou


Jambalaya
And a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
Cause tonight
I'm gonna see my me cheramio
Pick guitar
Fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun
We′ll have big fun on the bayou.
