Good-bye joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
Oh my john, the sweetest one, me oh my oh
Son of a gun we’ll have big fun on the bayou

(Chorus)
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filet gumbo
’cause tonight i’m gonna meet 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’
KInfolk come to see my john by the dozen
Dress in style go hog wild me oh my oh
Son of a gun we’ll have big fun on the bayou

(Chorus)

Settle down far from town get me a pirogue
And i’ll catch all my fish in 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

(Chorus)
