Artist: Emmylou Harris

Album: Elite Hotel

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Sr., Hank Williams

Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne, the sweetest one and me oh my oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Well jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and a fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Gonna pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Well a thibideaux, fountaineaux, the place is buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Well we dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Well jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and a fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Gonna pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou

Well jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and a fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Well we dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh
Son of a gun gonna have big fun on the bayou
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
