Jambalaya (On the Bayou) Songtext
von Jerry Lee Lewis

Goodbye Joe, me gotta go down the bayou
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, a-crawfish pie, and-a file gumbo
Yeah, tonight I'm a-gonna see my machez amio
Pick guitar and a-fill a fruit jar and we gonna be gay-oh
The son of a gun, we′re gonna have a little fun on the bayou, yeah

Thibodeaux, Fontainebleau, the place is buzzing
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, they go hog wild, me oh, my oh
The son of a gun, we're gonna have a little fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie, and-a file gumbo
Well, tonight I'm going to see my machez amio
Pick guitar, gonna fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou
