Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma Cher Amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay o son of a gun
We'll have big fun on the bayou
Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me, oh, my, oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
Swap my mon to buy my John what he 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 ma Cher Amio
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'
Kin folk 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
