1. Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh,
                         G7               C
   me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou.
                                       G
   My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh,
                                   G7         C
   son of the sun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

      C                                 G
Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a fillet gumbo
                          G7             C
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
                                    G
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
                                G7         C
son of the sun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.            C                                G

2. Thibay-deaux, Fountaineaux, the place is buzzin',
                        G7            C
   kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen.
                                       G
   Dress in style, go hog wild, me oh my oh,
                                   G7         C
   son of the sun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
