Jambalaya Lyrics

JAMBALAYA:Fats Domino
#30 in USA & #41 in UK in '61.
#1.
Good-bye 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
CHORUS:
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filet gumbo,
cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amie..o.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay..o,
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou.
#2.
Thibodeaux, fontaineaux, the place is buzzin'.
kinfolk come to see Yvonne 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:
#3.
Settle down far from town get me a pirogue.
and I'll catch all the fish in the bayou,
swap my gun to buy Yvonne what she need..o.
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou.
CHORUS:
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
