(+) The Carpenters - Jambalaya (On The Bayou) • TopPop
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 crawfish pie
and fil 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'
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 fil 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
Settle down far from town,
get me a pirogue
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
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie
and fil 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
