Jambalaya
Jimmy C. Newman
Music & Lyrics : H. Williams
Notes : Also
performed by "Creedence Clearwater Revival"

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.
