Jambalaya


From the 1971 album "Third Album"



        G                       D
Goodbye, Joe, me gotta go, me oh my, oh
                                     G
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
                                    D
My John, the sweetest one, oh me, oh my, oh
                                         G
A son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
 

G                                      D
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
                                          G
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my, my cher amio
                                   D
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar, and be gay-o
                                         G
A son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

G                                   D
Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin'
                                   G
Kinfolk come to see John now by the dozen
                                       D
A dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my, oh
                                         G
A son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
 

G                                      D
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
                                          G
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my, my cher amio
                                   D
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar, and be gay-o
                                         G
A son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
