Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me oh, my oh.
Me gotta go, pole the piroque doen the bayou
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh, my oh
Son of a gun, we’ll have big fun on the bayou.
Refr. Jabalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
Cause tonight I’m gonna see ma cher-a-mio
Pick a guitar, fill fruit jar, and be gayo
Son of a gun, we’ll have big fun on the bayou.
Thi-bo-doux, fountain-eaux, the place is buzzing
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.
Refr.
Settle down far from town, get me a pireque
And I’ll catch all the fish in the bayou
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o
Son of a gun, we’ll have big fun on the bayou. |
