JAMBALAYA(*)

By: the Carpenters

Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me-oh-my-oh.
Me 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 a-gonna see my ma-cher-a-mi-o.
Pick guitar, fill fruit far and be gay-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou!

(music interlude)

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-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou!

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo,
for tonight, I'm a-gonna see my ma-cher-a-mi-o.
Pick guitar, fill fruit far and be gay-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou!
