Carpenters - Jambalaya

Goodbye joe, he gotta go, me oh my oh
He gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
His Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin'
A kin-folk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, they 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 fillet gumbo
For tonight, I'm gonna see my, ma chère amie, oh
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay, oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Settle down far from town, get him a pirogue
And he'll catch all the fish in the bayou
Swap his mon to buy Yvonne what she need, oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
For tonight, I'm gonna see my, ma chère amie, oh
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay, oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
